Dear White Cloud Public Schools Community,
On May 6, 2025, we have the chance to vote on a bond proposal that if approved, will enhance our educational facilities, and strengthen the safety and security measures across our campus.
After careful consideration and extensive community surveys, we have identified several key areas that require attention. The proposed bond focuses on addressing these needs with no expected overall debt milling from the 2024 rate for our residents.
The bond proposal includes updates to enhance safety and security measures district-wide. From improved lighting and surveillance systems to enhance emergency preparedness protocols, these updates would ensure that our schools’ improvements remain safe and welcoming environments for all.
Furthermore, the proposed bond would fund the creation of a safe and secure walkway connecting our elementary school to our junior high and high school buildings. This walkway would provide a protected lighted route for students and staff, promoting peace of mind for parents and establishing a safe passage between schools.
In response to community feedback, we are also pleased to announce that the bond proposal would include improvements to the traffic flow at our elementary school. By implementing strategic traffic management solutions, we aim to alleviate congestion and enhance safety during drop-off and pick-up times.
The bond proposal includes plans for the construction of a baseball and softball sports complex located on the former JDJ property. These facilities would benefit our student-athletes.
We understand the importance of being responsible stewards of taxpayer dollars, which is why we want to emphasize that if approved, this bond proposal, there would be no expected tax rate increase for our community from the 2024 debt millage rate.
Please consider voting by May 6, 2025, on this important issue.
