The City of Childress has issued a boil water notice, effective immediately, due to low disinfectant residuals. The school district is prepared for the current conditions and has made the necessary accommodations to help keep students and staff safe throughout the school day. School will continue as planned, and we will follow all precautions until the notice is lifted.
🏫 How are school buildings funded?
Texas school districts do not receive additional state funding for new school construction or major renovations. Instead, these projects are funded through voter-approved bonds, which are repaid over time through a dedicated funding source separate from the Maintenance & Operations (M&O) fund used for teacher salaries and student programs. #BondsBuildSchools

🏫 Childress ISD currently has five portables being used as classrooms and learning spaces, which cost nearly $250,000 each.
A section of Main Street is closed off during the day to allow students to walk safely to the portables. These spaces are less secure than traditional classrooms and take money away from the district’s annual operating fund.
The 2026 Bond could allow the district to begin moving away from the need for portables as student academic space, ultimately leading to their elimination.

🏠 How could Bond 2026 affect homeowners age 65 and older?
For homeowners age 65 and older and individuals with disabilities who have the appropriate homestead exemption, the proposed bond would not increase their frozen school district tax amount, provided no substantial improvements have been made to the property.
Under current state law, homeowners age 65 and older with a home valued at $200,000 or less who have received the Over-65 Homestead Exemption may owe $0 in school district taxes.
To check your exemption status and current school district tax amount, visit https://www.childresscad.org/ or call 940-937-6062.

🏫 Childress Junior High originally opened as the high school in 1926. The building is now 100 years old and has not undergone major renovations in 27 years.
Current conditions at the campus include:
• 25 exterior doors, more than most large high schools in Texas.
• No secure vestibule at the main entrance, allowing visitors direct access into the building.
• Aging infrastructure, including deteriorating interior walls and original clay plumbing that requires ongoing maintenance.
Prop A includes renovations and new construction to create a combined secondary campus with updated classrooms, shared learning spaces, and permanent academic facilities.
