Residents will vote on the $200 million bond proposition approved by the Spokane Public Schools Board of Directors. The bond proposition will help fund the rebuild of Adams and Madison elementary schools, modernize sections of certain schools, and establish a four-year trades high school on the Spokane Community College campus. The bond will also be used to fund maintenance projects that improve the overall safety, security, and learning environment for students across the district.
If approved, the bond will add two cents to the existing bond bill, resulting in an estimated cost of $1.36 per $1,000 of assessed home value. The rate is projected to increase on average by 2 to 3% to account for the annual rate of inflation. The Together Spokane webpage offers a tax calculator for voters to estimate their personal tax contribution.
We recommend voting YES for the Spokane School Bond to improve the safety, security, and overall quality of our public schools.
