Pleasant Grove Independent School District's Board of Trustees will hold a special meeting at 1:30 p.m. today to consider a resolution approving a proposal from CHRISTUS St. Michael Health System for the exchange of property.
The proposal includes authorizing Superintendent Dr. Jason Smith to negotiate a definitive exchange agreement for 4.35 acres at PG Elementary for an approximately 10 acre tract of land on Christus Drive and Galleria Oaks on which the district would build the new elementary school.
In August, the board accepted proposals for the district property as required by law.
Funds for the new elementary building come from a $19.9 million bond election voters approved in May, which raised taxes from $1.44 to $1.455 per $100 in property valuation. The bond included $250,000 in increased school security, $1.2 million in technology upgrades and $18,519,862 for the new school.
The board will also hear a report on the 2018 A-F District Accountability Ratings. A closed session is also on the agenda.
The meeting will be held at the Central Services, 8500 N. Kings Highway, Texarkana, Texas.
