    Celina’s Billion-Dollar Question: A Deep Dive into the 2025 School Bond

    VOTERS: Celina ISD Faces Its Most Important Decision Yet – $2.295 Billion Bond Issue on May 4th! Celina, Texas is growing faster than ever before — and our schools need to keep up. On May 4th, Celina ISD voters will decide the future of our community with a $2.295 billion school bond proposal that was unanimously recommended by a diverse 48-member community committee. Here’s the real story behind the big number: Zero Tax Rate Increase That’s right — thanks to Celina’s explosive growth and expanding tax base, the bond will not increase your current tax rate. While ballots will say “this is a tax increase,” in reality, your tax bill will not go up because of this bond. 11 New Schools + Major Upgrades We’re projected to triple in student population in the next 5–6 years, and this bond funds the facilities to make that growth manageable. That includes: A second high school Two new middle schools Multiple new elementary campuses Infrastructure, safety upgrades, and much more Built for the Future of Every Student This bond isn’t about flashy stadiums or admin buildings — it's 100% focused on student success, providing modern, safe, and opportunity-rich learning environments. Think: Robotics programs Orchestra and fine arts expansions Career tech additions like health sciences, law, and culinary arts Transportation, buses, tech upgrades — all included You’re Not Just Voting for Schools — You’re Voting for Celina’s Future Whether or not you have children in the district, this bond impacts YOU. Schools shape property values, safety, and community identity. Every school — including the newest — will see benefits from the bond. And every dollar stays in Celina ISD — the state can’t touch it. Community-Driven. Data-Informed. Growth-Responsive. This plan was months in the making, backed by expert demographic studies, financial advisors, and real data on the 25,000 students we’ll serve in the next decade. Make Your Voice Heard We’re not asking for blind trust — we’re asking voters to get informed and vote with confidence. This bond is about preparing today for tomorrow’s Celina. Because growth is opportunity — and this is ours. Election Day is May 3, 2025 Early voting begins April 21st. Let’s ensure Celina ISD continues to be the best choice for families, students, and our entire community.
