Progreso ISD to apply for electric bus grant; four older buses may qualify
Summary
Superintendent said the district will apply when the electric‑bus grant opens, noting four district buses (2002–2004 model years) may qualify for replacement with electric vehicles; application not yet submitted and funding outcomes are uncertain.
Administration told the board it will apply for an electric‑bus grant as soon as applications open. "We're going to apply to uh the electric bus grant... we have four buses that may qualify," the superintendent said, adding the buses are older models from roughly 2002–2004 and would be candidates for replacement.
No vote or commitment of funds took place; the announcement was a notice of intent. Board members asked how many gas buses remain in service—administration answered that 13 regular gas buses are in the fleet—and sought timeline and follow‑up information about the application once it opens.
