Referendum 2024

A Referendum 2024 headline next to the D64 logo

At its August 15th meeting, the District 64 Board of Education unanimously voted to place an $89,106,629 million bond referendum on the November 5th ballot. Voters will be asked for funding to address critical needs at nearly every school, including replacing outdated locks and doors and updating old and failing heating, cooling, lighting, electrical, and plumbing systems. The proposed improvements address needs and problems that will worsen if untreated. 

“It’s been almost a year of facility planning and research to better understand how our schools do not support our students and staff from a health and safety perspective and educationally,” said Superintendent Dr. Ben Collins.” We look forward to the democratic process of having this bond referendum on the November ballot, allowing the community to express their views and have their voices heard.”

The referendum would address the most pressing facility issues impacting all seven schools. Some benefits of the proposal are creating healthier, safer, and more secure schools, enhancing ADA accessibility, moving academic support out of the hallways, reducing costly and disruptive emergency repairs, ensuring all students have access to a quality learning environment, and protecting academic excellence and your property values.
