Today, residents in Union, Jenks and Skiatook public school districts will have the opportunity to vote for bonds that will bring millions of dollars of improvements.
At more than $152 million over five years, Union’s bond is by far the largest. Superintendent Kirk Hartzler said the bond will “significantly improve” the district’s sixth and seventh grade center, according to a statement from the district.
Skiatook’s bonds totaling more than $14 million would pay for a storm shelter and gym, technology upgrades, a turf replacement at the football stadium, and student transportation services. Jenks’ bond issues totaling more than $17 million will fund similar improvements to the district.
Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. today.
