"Our community looked at the information that was presented and made an informed decision to support its school district" ~ MISD Superintendent, Dr. Jerome Stewart

"Today marks the end of a long process. We acknowledge and thank past and present Growth Management Committees, Midlothian ISD School Board of Trustees, Community Advocates for Responsible Education (C.A.R.E.), the wonderful citizens of Midlothian ISD, the district's faculty, staff, and administrators, and the many others who worked tirelessly and selflessly," said Dr. Stewart. "The spirit and dedication of these people has been remarkable."

"I am grateful and pleased," continued Dr. Stewart, "that our bond issue passed. Our community looked at the information that was presented and made an informed decision to support its school district and to build on its excellence, for this day and for the future."

Dr. Stewart concluded, "As one process ends, another process begins: building the bond projects. The School Board Trustees and I, look forward to working with the MISD community to build the three bond projects in a manner of which our community can be proud."
