District news
Board puts a $68 million school building bond to voters
What happened
On August 18 the board voted 7-0 to authorize up to $68,000,000 in bonds and to hold a referendum on the question. News reports say voters approved it on November 3 by about 40 votes, to improve the middle and high school campuses.
Why it matters to families
Bonds are repaid through property taxes over many years. A yes vote commits the district to a large building program at the middle and high schools.
The evidence
August 18, 2026 minutes record both 7-0 roll call votes; the August 3 agenda lists the same two resolutions. The vote count comes from a Spectrum News report, not an official canvass.
