Aging, Deteriorating and Inefficient Facilities
The school district faces significant challenges due to aging and outdated facilities. Maintaining existing buildings will require a substantial $143 million investment over the next 25 years, without addressing necessary improvements. A new high school is proposed to enhance efficiency and competitiveness. Neighboring districts' recent investments have created a competitive disadvantage for the district in attracting and retaining students and staff.
