The 2025 Bond is our community’s plan for the future—built together, for all of us. It invests in new schools, modernized facilities, safer campuses, and the tools students need to learn, lead, and succeed. Each proposition reflects the voices of our neighbors, educators, and families, ensuring that every project meets both today’s needs and tomorrow’s opportunities.
