Lamar Consolidated ISD Bond Update

Lamar Consolidated ISD Bond Update

July 07 2023

In our second quarterly update, we want to share fresh progress for technology and construction projects taking place during the summertime. Our community may notice exterior changes when driving by developing sites, but we would also like to highlight the upgrades going on inside of our buildings and classrooms.
 
We remain committed to positive community engagement, and we understand this bond is an investment that deserves full transparency and accountability.
 
Together, we continue to emphasize the impact of your tax dollars and keep you informed as we move from planning to progress.
