Why this bond—and why now?

Deteriorating structural supports, walls, and door frames…rusted steel and crumbling masonry…outdated wiring…asbestos laden ceilings and floors…and bathrooms inaccessible to handicapped students are serious problems—the kind of things that go above and beyond normal maintenance.

Previous bond proposals called for building new buildings, but this proposal only addresses the improvements that are needed and the expansion of seriously overcrowded existing buildings, including library, science classroom and computer-lab conversions at Central High School. Renovation will make our schools last without having to replace them, protecting our community's investment.
