Good morning Pioneers...as we press on toward the May 2 bond vote authorized unanimously by the Board of Education, please note that you can find information regarding the bond issue on our website at any time. The bond proposal is for $66.52 million and includes building a new high school, renovating the current high school to serve as a middle school, safety and traffic enhancements, and removal of the 1922 middle school. Due in part to the age of our facilities (101 years old, 63 years old, and 51 years old), the Board has determined it is time to put this issue before the voters and to act. Tours of the 1922 middle school will be offered at 7 p.m. on March 14th and April 11th, as well as 10 a.m. on March 15th. Please meet at the main entrance to the middle school on State Street. Additionally, Community Forums will be held at 7 p.m. on March 15th and April 12th in the Middle School Auditorium. These are opportunities to better understand the scope of the bond project, costs, and goals. This information is also on the website. Please Vote May 2nd!
