Our facility’s challenges, including overcrowding in our growing district, did not go away when the bond failed in March. Over the summer, the Board of Education and Administration invited all residents to share feedback about the original proposal. 

​

School leaders took the concerns to heart. The plans were scaled back to reduce the cost of the bond while maintaining a focus on academics, critical academic requirements and important safety and security components. 

​

The revised facility plan calls for a bond election in the amount of $12,995,000 that will fund a renovation and addition project at the existing school. The plan includes:​​

• A new entrance better situated to the parking lot for safety and security

• Four additional classrooms

• An accessible storm shelter located within new locker rooms

• A second gym for PE, indoor recess, practice, and events

• Renovated rooms to provide private spaces for student services

• Improvements to the parking lot, including more paving, to improve water shed issues

• A safe walkway from the preschool to high school

We are growing!

Our school has grown by 19 percent in the past ten years and we are running out of space! That equates to an extra 50 students in our school since 2014. Enrollment projections show that our district will continue to grow. The last bond issue to fund building updates was done in 1994, and our facility and programming needs have changed over the past 30 years.

It's critical that we add classrooms to accommodate the additional students. Four classrooms will help alleviate overcrowding with some room for future growth. The additional gymnasium serves as an important classroom for physical education in our school. It plays double duty as our auditorium, community events center, school events center and recess space during bad weather.
