Tiger Families -
After months of research, planning, and community events, the USD 340 school board voted on a resolution to move forward with an election in March to pass a bond issue. This bond issue is designed to take care of facility needs within the school district - these are the same facility needs that were presented at the community engagement meetings and narrowed down according to the community feedback.
A special thanks goes out to everyone that attended the community engagement meetings and provided input to the board as this is an important decision for our students, staff and community.
Information about the bond can be found on the USD 340 website or by simply following this link:
