2023 Eureka School Bond
Our Challenge:
Security
Students commute between buildings during the day
Multiple exterior entrances are not monitored
Pedestrian safety concerns at drop-off/pickup areas
Maintenance
Continually increasing maintenance costs of old buildings
Old worn out systems, including heat & plumbing, with poor efficiency
Repair parts unavailable due to age
Handicapped accessibility is an issue
Space
Inefficient rooms in 3 large, separate schools
Large amounts of inefficient space to heat and clean
Classrooms are not flexible or multi-use
Space is not arranged well for today's education
Handicap accessibility is an issue
Our Solution:
Pay Now or Pay More Later
Fixing worn out systems is inevitable, at high costs
Fixing failed systems will cost more at emergency rates
New consolidated spaces will be less costly to maintain
More money can be devoted to students and education
Flexible Spaces
Classrooms will be multi-use and collaborative
Improved Teacher cooperation and technology use
Improved grade level transitions
Peer Mentoring across grade levels
Security
Seperate monitored entrances
Easier, Safer drop off location with more parking
