The new bond is the largest in the district's history, board President Sam Slaton said. The district’s last bond election was in 2022 when voters approved a nearly $268 million bond package. During the planning process for the 2024 bond, the committee focused on selecting projects that aligned with the district’s 10-year plan compared to previous bonds that focused on short-term projects.
