The Evant Independent School District (ISD) Board of Trustees has called for a bond election to address deferred maintenance needs across the district. This move follows previous efforts to secure funding for infrastructure and facility improvements.
According to a notice provided by the Hamilton County Elections Office, the Board of Trustees determined it was necessary and advisable to hold an election within the district to vote on specific propositions.
Funding and Maintenance Goals
The district previously sought $9.5 million through a bond election specifically aimed at addressing deferred maintenance. Deferred maintenance refers to the postponement of repairs and upkeep on buildings and infrastructure, which can lead to higher costs or facility degradation over time.
Previous Election Outcomes
Records indicate that the district has faced challenges in passing these measures. On November 5, 2025, early voting results suggested that the Evant ISD bond measure failed.
The current call for a bond election represents a continued effort by the district administration and the Board of Trustees to secure the necessary capital to stabilize and improve school facilities.
Administrative oversight for the election process is managed by the Hamilton County Elections Office, led by County Clerk Rachel Lamb Geeslin.
