Bearcat Growth Committee

BGC Purpose

The purpose of the Bearcat Growth Committee is to represent the Aledo ISD community in the study of data related to enrollment, finances, instructional priorities, and facility needs, and in recommending to the Board of Trustees a bond program to address district-wide facility needs due to growing student enrollment and aging facilities.

 
BGC Charge

BGC

The Bearcat Growth Committee is charged by the Board of Trustees to:

  • represent the priorities, expectations, and values of the entire community,
  • consider the needs of all of the district’s students,
  • use facts and data to make informed decisions,
  • recommend a program that meets the district’s building capacity needs for as long as possible and extends the
     life of facilities where possible,
  • understand the district’s finances to develop a program that is fiscally sound, and
  • recommend to the Board of trustees a bond program and the associated request of voters for a possible November 2019 bond election.
