District to host school referendum information meetings
Over the past few weeks I have had the opportunity to share information on the upcoming referendum with various groups. The conversations have been productive and it seems most leave with a better understanding of our facility needs and the projects we are looking to complete. One key message I am sharing: these projects are not about building neglect. In fact, quite the opposite. Our facility team does an amazing job maintaining our schools and fields. However, major system updates and renovations require more funding than our annual budget can support. School finance rules are specific on how funding can be used, thus the need to utilize a voter-approved bond. WATCH YOUR MAIL This week a brochure will be landing in the mailboxes of all school district residents. Please take time to read and learn more about our process and the proposed projects. JOIN US SEPT. 21 or 22 The District will host informational community meetings on Monday, Sept. 21 at 6:30 p.m. and Tuesday, Sept. 22 at noon to show residents the spaces that need updating as well as answer any questions.
