Voters paid for school improvements. Salem-Keizer wants to close them
Salem-Keizer voters approved a $620 million bond measure in 2018 to address overcrowded schools, improve building safety, and expand educational opportunities across one of Oregon's largest school districts. Eight years later, the district is considering closing six elementary schools , including several that received bond-funded improvements. For families who remember the 2018 campaign, the closures have them questioning whether they'll support another construction bond.

It was the largest bond effort in district history and, at the time, the third-largest bond measure in Oregon. Voters narrowly approved it , with 53% voting in favor and 47% opposed. "I am very pleased that the citizens of Salem and Keizer continue to support the schools and trust the district to use the money wisely and as promised," said then-school board
