On February 16, 2023, the Fort Bend ISD Board of Trustees unanimously called a $1.26 billion bond election to be considered by the community in the May 6, 2023 election.

The bond will fund major projects throughout the district, enhancing every campus in Fort Bend ISD except schools that are newly constructed.

The district has not had a bond in five years, and as a result some of its 82 campuses are rated  in “critical condition” due to outdated mechanical, plumbing, roofing, electrical and HVAC systems that are beyond reasonable repair.
