This spring we are celebrating a ribbon cutting, hosting two farewell events, and beginning the countdown to the grand openings of new schools. You're invited to the three celebrations happening this spring.
School Construction
We are busy building the school projects you approved in the 2016 bond to give students room to learn—thank you, voters! Increased space will lower elementary class sizes. New facilities and upgraded security features will improve safety in every school. Additional design work will speed future bond progress. We are on target to complete every project on time and within budget.
