Issaquah School District is asking the community to consider a school modernization and construction bond in the November 5, 2024 election. School construction and modernization are minimally funded by the state, which is why school districts rely on local, voter-approved bond funding. Funding from the bond would be used to modernize buildings and infrastructure, giving every student in our district access to secure schools and innovative learning experiences that prepare them for their future. Bond funding would preserve our investment in facilities and ensure efficient and sustainable operations. The bond proposal package was developed with the input of more than 60 community members, parents/guardians, staff and students who volunteered on the district's Bond Advisory Committee over the span of three months in the spring. Read More Here about what is funded in the bond: https://visvote.org/2024/08/09/what-is-in-the-school-construction-modernization-bond-on-the-nov-5-2024-ballot-read-here/ ____________________________________________________________________________
