Melissa ISD 2025 Bond

On May 3, 2025, the Melissa ISD community will vote on the district’s $875 Million bond package.

Why is Melissa ISD having a bond?

SAFETY. GROWTH. ENHANCED LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS.

The Facility Planning Committee is a 130-member community needs assessment committee that was formed ahead of the Melissa ISD 2025 Bond Election. The purpose of this committee was to reflect on where Melissa ISD has been in years past, evaluate where the district is now, and plan for where the district is headed in the years to come. As part of this initiative, the committee provided feedback and guidance to the district, establishing a list of priorities valued by our students and community in order to help ensure that Melissa ISD will be able to meet the unique needs of our fast-growth district.

Melissa Schools is Growing

Melissa ISD hired demographers to conduct a comprehensive demographic study and student enrollment projections for the next 10 years.
