Why does the school district have bond propositions on the ballot every year?

The district maintains 93 schools and six support facilities totaling more than 7.5 million square feet. We spend more than $22 million in our annual general operating budget for day-to-day repairs and preventative maintenance but major building components eventually wear out and need to be replaced. Older schools can also reach a point where the entire structure becomes functionally obsolete and requires major renovation. With 99 school facilities in our care, repairs and renovations are needed at a handful of schools every year.
