To address our urgent facility needs, the Axtell Community Schools board of education has called an election for a bond not to exceed $5,495,000. This bond will fund facility safety and security improvements for students and staff, provide for district growth and improve the overall functionality of our facility.
A bond is a state-approved funding process for a set scope of projects. When voters approve a bond, the school district sells bonds in the authorized amount and uses the proceeds of the sale to pay for those projects over time, much like a home mortgage.
