While the numbers aren’t official yet, Scottsdale Unified School District’s $375 million capital improvement bond appears to have been accepted by the voters, and supporters say that means the district can keep the district’s schools safe and offering relevant educational experiences for students.
As of 9 a.m., Nov. 13 the bond was passing with 54,958 yes votes (54.37%) to 46,123 no votes (45.63%). The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors are expected to canvass the results Nov. 18.
“We’re going to make sure the schools are working good for the neighborhoods,” said Denny Brown, a co-chair of the Still Yes to Children committee that championed the bond.
