When Pasco citizens voted down the last bond issue, the school board listened to them. They have come back with a scaled back bond which will hopefully meet the needs of the incredible growth in the schools.

Do people want a multi-track yearlong school year? No! Do they want double shifting at elementary schools? No!

Bus safety, car pick up lines, lunch schedules, assemblies, and many other scheduling items are affected by having more than 700 students in a school.

Please spread the word that this bond is not only necessary, it is imperative. Vote yes on the Pasco bond issue.
