The 2023 Waxahachie ISD Bond Proposal is based on a comprehensive plan developed by a committee of WISD stakeholders who gathered for eight meetings from February 2022 to December 2022. The committee was composed of representatives with various perspectives, including parents, students, staff members, grandparents, business leaders, civic leaders, volunteers, retirees, community members, and WISD alumni.

After studying and considering the Long Range Planning Committee's plan, the Board of Trustees voted on February 13 and called for a bond election on May 6, 2023.  After the election results were officially canvassed and certified, Waxahachie ISD began phase one of the Board-adopted 17,000+ Student Plan.

The bond package for the community's consideration included:
