HISD’s bond proposal (Aug. 29, 2024)

  • Summary

  • On Thursday's show: We hear some varying points of view on Houston ISD's $4.4 billion bond proposal, which would address aging campuses with pressing needs, according to the district.

    But about three weeks before they are set to decide whether to place a bond package on the Nov. 5 ballot, the state-appointed leaders of Texas' largest school district signaled support for the plan. They also expressed a sense of urgency for making schools across the city safer and more secure.

    Also this hour: With multiple mosquito-borne illnesses in the news lately along with lingering questions about the latest COVID variant, infectious diseases expert Dr. Peter Hotez walks us through what we should know about those and other public health concerns of late.

    And we visit the Gulfton Story Trail Mural Project, a series of 12 murals in the Gulfton neighborhood reflecting the experiences of people who live there.
