Nearly two-thirds of voters approved Richardson ISD’s $750 million bond, while one of the two school board races on the May 1 ballot is headed to a runoff.
The bond money will cover facilities, construction, equipment, safety and technology updates at all of the district’s campuses. The bond proposal was made up of two separate propositions, which each gained 63% approval from voters.
The holiest of all holidays, 420, is coming up sometime soon, but we couldn t tell you exactly in how many days.

2. Take a nap by snuggling up with the giant teddy bear statues in Lakeside Park.
