Center ISD Trustees to open bids on proposed new transportation facility location at noon today

The Center ISD is interested in pursuing the move of the district's transportation facility and operations center and will be opening sealed bids on the possible lease of a different facility at a special called meeting at noon today.

 

Superintendent Dr. James Hockenberry was authorized by the board earlier this month to solicit proposals to relocate the current bus bar that's adjacent to Timpson Hwy.

 

Hockenberry said Center ISD discussed another location for the transportation facility over a year ago and decided not to accept a proposal at that time.

 

Also today, trustees are expected to act on immediate implantation of Senate Bill 149, which Hockenberry said was recently enacted by the Texas Legislature. He said under certain conditions a student who has not passed End of Course examinations may graduate. This new law was signed by Gov. Abbott and is retroactive for the 2015 graduating class. He added to be fully compliant with the law school districts need to adopt a resolution suspending certain policies for this school year.

 

Hockenberry is to also give the school board an update on facilities projects that were given the green light a couple of weeks ago.
