Community members, I understand emotions have been running at an all time high over the bond election vote. The votes have been cast and the proposition failed. This is a time that we need to come together as a community and divide us further. It is my job as Superintendent to work with the Board of Education and community to come up with a proposition that will be supported and work for all. I've had calls from NO voters that want to help so please do not make this personal and attack our fellow community members. Everyone has a personal right to vote their conscience. We will run another bond issue and we must come together as a community to do that successfully. We don't need to divide our school district because it only hurts our children. Thank you.
Unofficial results are as follows 521 yes to 549 no votes. Short of 60% super majority. Provisional ballots will have to counted so these are unofficial results.
