It's great to be a Falcon!
Hello Frontier Falcons!
Next Tuesday, May 11, 2021 Edmond Public Schools will hold a bond election. Passage of the bond will provide funds for educational materials and technology, building renovations and upgrades and safety improvements. There are many other important projects in the 2021 bond issue.
Passage of the bond issue should not raise homeowners taxes.
“As we have done with past bond issues, the district has planned this bond issue to keep the millage level stable between 24 and 25 mills,” said Superintendent Bret Towne. “The timing of bond sales will coincide with the retirement of existing bonds to support the district’s objective of sustaining a stable tax rate.”
All registered voters who live within Edmond Public School district boundaries qualify to vote including those residents who live outside the city limits of Edmond. Individuals should vote at their normal precincts from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. For specifics on the bond proposal, please visit our Frontier website.
Be watching for information coming home from your child’s teacher about device check-in, and end of the year class parties.
I hope you have a great week! We appreciate the many ways you serve Frontier staff and students.
The Heart of a Falcon Lives in You! Falcons Fly!
I Wish You Well,
Beth Kanaly, Principal
