Voters will consider a bond proposal that would initiate a modernization of our school buildings

If approved, the proposal would provide $117 million at *no tax increase for voters for a series of district-wide infrastructure updates to address capacity, efficiency, and community resources.

No tax rate increase expected over the current rate.

This is Phase 1 of a multi-phase master plan to optimize district assets over the next 15-20 years.

HIGH SCHOOL UPDATES

		New secure, single-point entryway				New and expanded cafeteria

		Relocated main offices and counseling center				New and expanded collaboration space

No tax rate increase expected from the current debt millage rate

NEW ELEMENTARY

The proposed Upper Elementary building would relocate traditional 5th–6th graders to the central campus to provide more age-appropriate learning and social opportunities, 30 elementary classrooms for district programs, and centralized access to arts and athletics facilities.

WHY A BOND?

TO MODERNIZE AGING LEARNING SPACES
as students learn and grow in today’s world

TO BETTER SUPPORT KIDS, FAMILY, AND COMMUNITY
with adequate spaces as security, social, and emotional needs are changing

TO OPTIMIZE DISTRICT EFFICIENCIES
by creating and leveraging multi-use community resources

WHAT WE'RE PLANNING

HIGH SCHOOL IMPROVEMENTS

A safer, single-point entry

for students, staff and the general public

A larger and modernized cafeteria

to be more than just a place to eat, a place that can be used all day as spaces for large-group instruction and events

Co-located administration and counseling services

to share functional resources, increasing efficiency, collaboration, and security

NEW UPPER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Space created for 5th & 6th graders

that better accommodates the needs of these ages and creates additional space in existing elementary buildings

Modernized learning environments

to increase collaboration and flexibility in the classrooms and begin a phased approach to learning spaces throughout the district

Central access to district programs

that consolidates time and space to offer 5th & 6th graders opportunities at the Junior High and High School

MAINTENANCE AND TRANSPORTATION RELOCATION

Consolidation of resources

through a shared maintenance & transportation hub

Optimizing campus space

by moving the maintenance facility off-campus and allowing easier access to centralized athletics

REPLACING AGING COMMUNITY-USE INFRASTRUCTURE

New, relocated tennis courts

to improve the safety and playability of the heavily used, cracking surfaces of the current courts and to centralize campus athletics

Pickleball capability

on some of the courts which will be striped for pickleball

New Junior High soccer practice field

to improve efficiency of space usage on campus and upgrade playability

LONG-TERM PLANNING

This bond would be the first step of a long-term master plan to renovate the district learning spaces over the next 15-20 years.
