Campbell – The Campbell ISD has approved to place both a bond and tax ratification election on the November ballot.

School Board members this week voted in favor of a $5 million bond package, plus a property tax rate of $1.17 per $100 valuation.

Since the proposed tax rate exceeds the effective rate, it must be approved by voters.
