Summary

Superintendent Zack Sedgwick outlined a $59.995 million bond request to address safety, infrastructure and programming across all district schools; absentee voting opens March 26 and election day is May 5, 2026.

Superintendent Zack Sedgwick briefed the Board on a proposed $59.995 million bond the district plans to put before voters on May 5, 2026. Sedgwick said the bond would fund projects aligned with the district's Facilities Master Plan, focusing on safety, infrastructure and programming needs across every MAPS school.

Sedgwick told the Board the district captured about half the cost of new boiler installations at two elementary schools through an energy rebate and is aiming to address priority needs now to control longer-term costs, improve accessibility, and modernize learning spaces. He noted the proposed 1.55-mill increase would still leave total district millage lower than regional and state averages, and reminded voters absentee voting opens March 26.
