The District was established as a political subdivision of the State of Texas and incorporated in 1902. The District serves approximately 60,000 students from four cities and has a workforce of more than 8,000 employees, making it the thirteenth largest district in Texas. In addition to the City of Arlington, the District serves the Town of Pantego, the City of Dalworthington Gardens and the Tarrant County portion of the City of Grand Prairie. The District is fiscally independent and is not a component unit of any other entity, nor does it have any component units within its overall structure. Certified property values exceed $32.5 billion. Arlington ISD operates 78 schools and is rated Met Standard by the Texas Education Agency. The District is under the control and management of a board of seven trustees, each of whom is elected by the District's registered voters to serve a three-year term. All of the trustees are elected at large and serve without compensation. The elections are staggered so that not all positions are voted on during the same year. The Board has final control over local school matters limited only by the state legislature, by the courts and by the will of the people as expressed in school board elections. Board decisions are based on a majority vote of the quorum present. In general, the Board adopts policies, sets direction for curriculum, employs the Superintendent and oversees the operations of the District and its schools. Besides general Board business, Trustees are charged with numerous statutory regulations, including appointing the tax assessor/collector, calling trustee and other school elections and canvassing the results, organizing the Board and electing its officers. The Board is also responsible for setting the tax rate, adopting and amending the annual budget, and approving all real estate transactions. The 2019 Bond Proposal was based on a comprehensive Facility Condition Assessment ("FCA") conducted by a consultant firm, and subsequently refined by a 37-member Capital Needs Steering Committee, comprised of students, parents, teachers, principals, community members, business representatives, college and university representatives, and three board members serving in an ex-officio capacity. The Capital Needs Steering Committee (CNSC) began meeting in January 2019 and reviewed data and feedback including the FCA results, enrollment figures and projections, responses to community dialogue questionnaires and surveys, and input from the staff and Board. The AISD Board of Trustees voted unanimously to place the $966 million bond proposition on the November 5, 2019. Project Budget $9,200,000
