The Klein (Texas) school district is asking voters to approve a $1.1 billion bond proposal that would pay for a wide range of facility improvements.

Money generated from the bond would enable the 53,000-student district to build and renovate buildings, acquire equipment, and carry out other facility upgrades, reports The Houston Chronicle.

The request will be on the May 7 ballot and is broken into four propositions:

Proposition A $843.84 million. It would provide funds to build and renovate numerous campuses and acquire transportation vehicles and other equipment.
Proposition B $51.51 million. It would pay for updated district technology, such as new personal computers for staff and students.
Proposition C 131.325 million. It would pay for construction of an events center.
Proposition D $75 .19 million. It would provide money to build a new district stadium and renovate the existing district stadium.

District voters last approved a bond issue in 2015, which enabled the district to pay for building new campuses, new renovations and technology additions, as well as security and safety updates.
