Chamber BOD endorses Olathe Public Schools 2013 Bond Election

After review from the Chamber’s Business to Government Committee, the Olathe Chamber Board of Directors has voted to endorse the Olathe Public Schools – a nationally recognized school system and a major contributor to Olathe’s quality of life and the city’s most important economic development attraction – in its quest to secure $244.8 million in bonds through the June 2013 election. This proposal includes projects to address the district’s growth, safety and security, technology and aging facility needs. 

In order to maintain its current level of excellence, the district is proposing the bond election to make sure that district’s growth, safety and security, technology, and aging facility needs are addressed so staff can continue its commitment to helping each student learn and grown in a quality educational setting.

This is a no-mill-levy-increase bond proposal that would positively impact every school in the district. Voters will have between May 22 and June 11 to vote on the issue to address the district’s needs. To learn more, visit www.olatheschools.com/bond2013.
