Sinking Fund Report
When the original sinking fund millage was approved by the district’s electors in 2014, we committed to updating progress of the improvements made with the funds. Sinking Fund revenues must be maintained separately from all other school funds and must have an annual budget and an independent audit.
A new sinking fund millage was approved by voters in 2018, and was renewed in 2023. We’ve continually provided our constituents with a list of the improvements made with the Sinking Fund revenues through our newsletters and social media channels.
As of Spring 2025, we have been able to complete the following sinking fund projects:
