Proposition 12 on the April 2001 ballot included
our most critical needs. Those needs didn't go away once the votes
were counted. The district
will continue to do everything they can to
improve our aging crowded facilities because all students deserve to
be in an environment that is conducive to
learning. Below is a description of what
was on the bond for this school. Proposition 12 failed.
