Bond 2022 Proposed Projects
Bond 2022 Would Preserve General Funds for Teacher Raises
When a district has bond funds available, capital expenses such as air-conditioning, roof replacements and buses can be paid out of those bond funds. When a district does not have bond funds available, all expenses must be paid out of the general fund or from other sources. This depletes these revenue sources, leaving less money available for all other expenditures, such as teacher raises, new teacher positions, benefits, and student programs. Approximately 85% of the general fund is allocated to salaries and benefits of staff. Reallocating general funds for these types of capital improvements would reduce the funds available for raises.
