Ponder ISD is at a critical moment. Our community is booming, with student enrollment projected to more than double in the next ten years. To protect the quality of education we expect and prevent overcrowded classrooms, we must plan for growth now.


The 2026 Bond Proposal is the responsible, community-driven plan to prepare our district for the next generation. It impacts every student and every campus, from building new elementary schools and expanding the high school, to upgrading existing facilities and expanding Career & Technology Education programs.


Most importantly, all of these vital projects can be funded using the district’s existing tax rate. Ponder ISD has a proven track record of fiscal responsibility, managing past bonds on time and under budget.


This is a growth bond designed to accommodate 3700 students which is double our current enrollment. Projects will move forward only as enrollment and funding capacity allow. This could happen anywhere within the next 5-10 years.


Learn the facts, view the propositions, and be part of the decision.

Strong schools don’t happen by accident — they happen when communities participate.
