Community Approves Special Election Question
On Tuesday, November 7, 2023, voters in the Clinton-Graceville-Beardsley (CGB) School District approved a one-question bond referendum in the amount of $25,000,000 for facility and learning environment improvements, including closing the elementary school in Clinton and combining into a single PreK-12 school in Graceville.
Following the vote, the unofficial election results are:
510 YES (55.86%) and 403 NO (44.14%).
"We are incredibly grateful to the community for their unwavering support in passing this important referendum. This vote sends a powerful message that our community values education and is dedicated to providing our students with the best possible opportunities." said Superintendent Brad Kelvington.
Kelvington continued, “Together, we are investing in the future of our communities and ensuring that our school district remains a source of pride and excellence for years to come. Thank you for believing in our vision for a brighter tomorrow.”
Next steps include continued design and engineering work with our project partner SitelogIQ.
The district will continue to keep the community informed on the progress of current and future facility projects.
