Our Planning Process
A plan built for and by our community.
Back in 2023, our district proposed a referendum plan to improve our school buildings after comprehensively evaluating their quality and integrity. The plan - which asked voters to consider $76.5 million in building investments plus a second levy for technology and transportation - was narrowly rejected.
Since then, our district has held over 20 meetings with parents, staff and students to hear feedback about how to better align new investments with the wants and needs of our community. We also randomly surveyed 500 residents throughout our district to gain unbiased feedback on what our district’s priorities should be from the broader community.
Using the feedback provided by our community, we identified several changes that could be made to better address the top priorities of our school and residents:
Reduce the cost of the plan for taxpayers.
Focus on “needs” such as safety and security improvements, rather than “wants” like a new auditorium and fields for athletics.
Repurpose existing classroom space to create better learning areas for students, rather than rely on the construction of brand new rooms.
