EAST CENTRAL ISD honors volunteers who backed May 2025 bond campaign
Summary
District staff honored community volunteers credited with helping pass the district's May 2025 bond, saying the measure will fund two new elementary schools, a second high school and roughly 3,500 additional student seats. Trustees and staff presented "Making a Difference" awards and called volunteer leaders to the stage for photos.
District staff recognized community volunteers on the board meeting program for their work on the district's May 2025 bond, calling the campaign "the largest bond in the history of our district." "Because of their tireless efforts, students now will have the privilege of learning in two brand-new elementary schools and a second high school," a district staff member said during the ceremony.
Staff said the bond will provide modernized facilities on the north and south ends of the district and estimated that "nearly 3,500 more students will have the opportunity to experience the joy of learning in modernized state-of-the-art facilities," language used by the presenter. The board called multiple volunteers to the stage for awards and photos, including Lily Aguilar, Amanda Knutson, Chenoa Magadet and Claire Zamora.
The presentation included remarks from students and alumni who attended district campuses and thanked staff and teachers. Staff also described campaign activities such as canvassing, creating materials, monitoring social media and speaking to community groups. No formal board action was recorded during the recognition segment.
The district framed the awards as a community legacy effort that will accompany construction and transition work already underway at multiple campuses.
