Summary

Superintendent said the district is evaluating a facilities funding proposal for the Nov. 2026 ballot intended to fund safety, ADA, infrastructure and CTE upgrades with no net tax increase and announced two April community information/tour meetings.

During the superintendent's report, district leadership said administrators are evaluating a facilities funding proposal that could appear on the November 2026 ballot and that the plan would be presented as a no‑net‑tax‑increase option.

The superintendent (Dr. Bartman) said the proposal aims to fund essential facility upgrades including safety and security enhancements, ADA accessibility improvements, infrastructure work and targeted investments in career and technical education facilities (autos and construction trades). He said the district will host two informational sessions for the community — April 20 at Addison Trail High School and April 30 at Willowbrook High School, both at 6:00 p.m. — where residents can ask questions and tour proposed project areas.

Dr. Bartman emphasized that more information will be shared over the coming months and encouraged community members to register for the informational meetings via the district website. No final decisions were made at the meeting; administration said it will continue community outreach and planning ahead of any ballot placement.
