We're Building the Future of SBISD
On November 6, 2007, Spring Branch ISD voters gave their overwhelming approval of the 2007 SBISD Bond Program. The ten-year $597.1 million bond package will improve the quality, safety and sustainability of Spring Branch ISD’s campuses and facilities including the rebuilding of 12 of our oldest campuses.
Additionally, the bond program will support technology upgrades and the purchase of new school buses to update our aging fleet.
