EDUCATION NEWS
- ➤ Auburn School District set two proposals on the November 4 ballot—a bond to build a new middle school and replace aging campuses and a levy for safety, security, and technology upgrades needed to relieve overcrowding. If approved, the bond will cost an average of $1.04 per $1,000 in property value for up to $490 million and the levy will cost 77 cents per $1,000 for $110.8 million—plans that follow eight years of on-time, under-budget school projects.
