On May 6, voters in Belton ISD will decide whether to issue bonds to fund four projects: a new high school, a new elementary school, the addition of music classrooms and a gymnasium at Lakewood Elementary, and updates to the Wall Street Auditorium in downtown Belton.
This is an important decision, and I expect that a lot of people will vote in this election. Pledge to vote at www.bisd.net/vote.
