The Fountain Hills Unified School District is seeking voter approval in November to issue two measures to address the needs of security, safety and upgrades to our schools. I encourage you to vote yes on both!

More than 87% of the money (see the FHUSD website for the breakout) will be used to improve the learning environment and safety of our students. This would include much-needed updates to our buildings both for repair and enhancement. Our buildings are getting older and continue to require more and more attention to the most common items like roofing and HVAC. And in today’s world, it’s important that our school safety and security systems be top notch to protect our kids.

In addition, our schools need technology upgrades to help our staff and students compete in the modern educational world. It’s important for the members of our community to step up and ensure that our local kids have the best possible opportunity to learn. The children of this town are our future, and we need to do everything we can to help them. The bond and override will ensure that we can achieve those goals. Vote yes twice!
