Saginaw High School Scene Shop Addition - design begins summer 2025- This would be an expansion of the current scene shop to support fine arts programs at SHS and provide equity to other high schools in the district.
- The scene shop serves as a daily classroom for approximately 80 students enrolled in the Technical Theatre class at SHS. They use the scene shop to learn proper set-building techniques and to build sets and props for theatre curriculum projects and productions throughout the year for SHS students and community.
- More than 100 students are directly impacted by the scene shop as performers and technicians each year.
- The scene shop directly supports five to six theatre productions each year, including a fine arts musical and UIL One Act Play. Set and prop pieces are also constructed for the students’ annual traveling productions to elementary and middle school in the Saginaw HS feeder zone.
- SHS Theatre Arts is an award-winning program that consistently advances in UIL One Act Play competition, most recently in spring 2023.
- Digital marquees at schools are used for announcements and messages for the school community. These devices typically have a lifespan of no more than 10 years, in part due to the wear-and-tear from being outdoors and also because the technology that supports the marquees becomes outdated, parts become unavailable, and the technology is no longer supported. Digital marquees for the following campuses will reach end-of-life and be scheduled for replacement within the seven-year life of the proposed bond program:
- Middle Schools – Creekview, Ed Willkie, Highland, Prairie Vista
- High Schools – Boswell, Chisholm Trail

- High Schools – Boswell, Chisholm Trail
