Orange Grove ISD seeks voter support for tax rate election

Orange Grove school leaders are asking residents to support a voter approval tax rate election that would help the district improve safety and provide employee raises after years of financial losses.

The Orange Grove Independent School District is turning to voters for help in recovering funds that have been lost over time, with the election appearing on the upcoming ballot.

When Gilbert Gonzalez Jr., an Orange Grove/Sandia resident, first heard about the potential tax increase, he decided to investigate the issue thoroughly.

"Course, it states another tax increase. We're on a fixed income. I said, 'woo, let me go check,'" Gonzalez said.
