Hermleigh, TX (March 2025) – Hermleigh ISD announces a variety of improvements throughout their campus. “We have really nice facilities, which have always been a point of pride for our district, but they are now going on thirteen to fourteen years old,” Jessie Ellerbe, Superintendent of Hermleigh ISD, shared. “Working with my school board, we identified and prioritized several areas needing attention.”
The district has now completed several projects including installing new turf on the softball and baseball fields, pouring new concrete for bus lanes, and upgrading various furnishings and equipment. Additionally, new student Chromebooks are on order, and the district plans to expand its vehicle fleet, upgrade security measures, and address roof concerns over the remainder of the school year. Financing for the improvements was provided by Government Capital Corporation in Southlake, Texas.
“We are fortunate to have an Education Foundation that was willing to work with our Board of Trustees to meet these needs of our district and assist with a maintenance note,” Mr. Ellerbe commented. “Government Capital worked with our board to get exactly what we needed financially and in a time frame even faster than expected. We are pleased to have partnered with Gov Cap once again!”
“I want to congratulate Mr. Ellerbe and the Hermleigh ISD board and education foundation on their campus updates,” Matt Sullivan, Municipal Finance Specialist at Government Capital Corporation, commented. “We take great pride in partnering with Texas school districts to help them achieve their goals and objectives to provide the best learning experience for their students for years to come.”
