NEW UIL HEAT GUIDELINES
The MPAC provides a safe, indoor space for athletics, fine arts, and other District programs to practice, perform, and host programmatic competitions.
It also allows protection from extreme weather conditions based on UIL rules introduced in 2023. Wet Bulb Global Tempature (WBGT) estimates the heat stress of temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, solar radiation, sun angle, and cloud cover, whereas Heat Index only measures temperature and humidity.
During the 2024, Tomball ISD was affected by weather-related conditions for a total of 167 days.
COMMUNITY USE
The MPAC will be available for community groups to use through the District's facility rental process.

What will I see on my ballot?
The projects shown above will be listed as Proposition D. See the wording below as it will appear on the ballot.
Voters will be asked to vote FOR or AGAINST the issuance of $76.7 million in bonds for the design and construction of a Multi-Purpose Activity Center at each high school in Tomball ISD. The ballot will also state the imposition of a tax sufficient to pay the principal of, and interest on, the bonds. This refers to the District's I&S rate, and Tomball ISD can afford to pay for these bonds at the current rate.
THE ISSUANCE OF $76,700,000 SCHOOL BUILDING BONDS FOR THE DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION, ACQUISITION, REHABILITATION, RENOVATION, EXPANSION, IMPROVEMENT AND EQUIPMENT OF MULTI-PROGRAM ACTIVITY CENTERS TOMBALL HIGH SCHOOL, TOMBALL MEMORIAL HIGH SCHOOL, AND TOMBALL WEST HIGH SCHOOL, AND THE LEVY AND IMPOSITION OF TAXES SUFFICIENT TO PAY THE PRINCIPAL OF AND INTEREST ON THE BONDS AND THE COSTS OF ANY CREDIT AGREEMENTS.
