Hereford ISD’s School Board has called for a $150 million bond for the May 2026 election. This bond will fund the construction of a new high school, install safe rooms at every campus, and demolish Stanton to make room for field relocation.

​

This proposal is the result of months of community collaboration through the Facility Planning Committee, which included citizens, city leaders, board members, teachers, and parents. The Committee collected data, evaluated needs, and planned to put together a bond package that addresses priorities determined to be the most critical by the Committee.

​

The Facility Planning Committee’s final report was presented to the Board, and after careful review, the following items will be included in the bond referendum for Hereford ISD citizens to vote on:

Bond Referendum Proposes to Focus on:

​

• Construction of a new high school
   

• Safe rooms for every campus
   

• Demolition of Stanton and relocation of fields

The District’s financial advisor has determined that financing $150 million in bonds would result in a 35¢ projected tax rate impact. More information, including details on how this could affect you, will be available on the District’s website.

We encourage every citizen to be informed about the bond. Your voice matters, and it’s important to ask questions and participate in the process. Remind your friends, neighbors, and family to stay involved. Early voting begins April 20, with Election Day on May 2, 2026.
