The 2022 Bonham ISD Bond Election will address a variety of community concerns, with one of the top priorities being student safety.
Did you know? Students at LH Rather Junior High must exit the building to go to the cafeteria and between classes. LH Rather also has classrooms with exterior doors and no fencing around the property. There are no State Standard Security Vestibules at LH Rather or Finley-Oates.
This bond package would eliminate the classrooms with exterior doors and the need for students to exit the building for lunch and between classes at LH Rather. The bond would also update the Security Vestibules at LH Rather and Finley-Oates.
