Poudre High School would receive the lion's share of the bond issue revenues
allocated to northern-area schools in the Poudre School District if a ballot
measure passes on Nov. 2.
Of the nearly $10.9 million allocated to Poudre, nearly half would go toward
replacement of the school's heating and ventilation system.
Overall, almost $23.8 million of the $120 million total bond issue would
be applied to mountain and north-area schools.
The proposed mill levy override would provide northern schools with $1.426
million in additional funding annually to enhance educational programs
and hire staff to reduce class size.
Highlights from the proposed spending lists follow with total allocations
for each school and a few examples from the full lists. Numbers are approximate.
