About Proposition A

The Denton ISD Board of Trustees unanimously approved placing Proposition A, also known as a Tax Ratification Election (TRE), on the November 4, 2025, election ballot. After House Bill 2, Denton ISD is facing approximately a $15 million budget deficit. 

If the TRE is approved, the proposed rate would generate an additional $26 million annually for the district’s daily operations, including teacher and staff support, safety and security, and student programs and enrichment.
