A presenter asked district voters to approve a $64,000,000 bond on May 5 to build a new two‑story wing, update science labs, create flexible classrooms and add a student media center; the presenter said the measure would cost the average homeowner about $12.50 per month.
A presenter for Coldwater Community Schools urged voters to approve a $64,000,000 bond proposal on May 5 to fund major upgrades at Coldwater High School. The presenter said the measure would allow the district to build a new two‑story wing with larger classrooms and updated science labs.
The presenter framed the bond as modest for homeowners but substantial for students, saying, "At an estimated cost of $12.50 per month for the average homeowner, this proposal will allow us to build a new 2 story wing with larger classrooms, updated science labs, and flexible modern spaces where students can work together." The presenter added that the bond would replace portions of the building that are "more than 70 years old" and would include "a new student media center designed for studying, research, and group work."
Supporters, represented by the presenter in this message, emphasized that the upgrades would create classrooms that "support teamwork, creativity, and discovery," which they said would better serve Coldwater students. The statement presented estimated homeowner cost as a key justification for the proposal; no independent cost breakdown or additional fiscal details were provided in the message.
There was no formal vote or board action recorded in the transcript; the recording is a public appeal asking district voters to cast ballots. The next procedural step is the May 5 public vote on the bond measure.
