Mesquite school district asks for money for new elementary school

Enrollment keeps growing, with just under 300 new students in 2006.

— Mesquite's school district is asking voters to approve its largest bond proposal ever in May: $180 million in bonds. It would require an increase in property tax rate by about 5 cents per $100 of assessed value.

About $130 million, says the DMN, would pay for a new elementary school in South Mesquite, plus renovating and rebuilding other campuses.

The proposal also includes money for computers, vehicles, instructional equipment, and building maintenance.
