The Kennewick School Board has directed the district to prepare a school bond resolution in the amount of $68 million in general obligation bonds to be placed on the ballot in a special election March 10, 2009. If approved by voters, the funds will be used to construct and equip a new elementary school on land the district owns in the Badger Canyon area; renovate and expand Canyon View, Southgate, Sunset View and Cascade elementary schools; improve network and wireless capacity; and make health, safety, educational and infrastructure improvements district-wide. State matching funds would go toward renovating Lincoln elementary if they are made available by the state. Click here for more information including projected tax rates.
