Cedar Rapids schools to mail bond survey to registered voters about facilities plan
Summary
Cedar Rapids Community School District will mail a bond survey to registered voters around Feb. 10 seeking input on a proposal that would fund four major facility projects affecting more than 5,000 students; responses are due March 5.
The Cedar Rapids Community School District will mail a bond survey to registered voters beginning about Feb. 10 asking for input on a proposed facilities initiative that the district says includes four major projects affecting more than 5,000 students. Responses to the survey are due March 5.
Podcast host Joe, speaking for the district communications team, said the proposal aims to modernize and improve school facilities while keeping CRCSD’s tax rate “amongst the lowest in Linn County.”
District officials said the bond proposal includes a new middle school and renovations at Kennedy High School, Wilson and McKinley. The podcast described the survey as a key step for gathering community feedback to shape decisions on whether to place a bond referendum before voters in a later process.
The podcast did not provide a total dollar amount for the proposed bond, an exact tax impact calculation, or a final ballot schedule. Those details were not specified during the episode.
The district encouraged parents and residents to complete and return the mailed survey by March 5 so community input can be considered as staff and the school board refine plans.
