About Capital Projects

Funding for school construction, facility improvements, and property purchases mostly comes from local voters through bond elections. This is separate from the district’s general fund and by law, cannot be used for day-to-day operations or to address budget shortfalls.

We are grateful for our community's support of bonds passed in 2022, 2018 and 2013 that allow us to fund school construction projects to improve the education experience for our students, staff, families and community.
