NEWS RELEASE (1-17-2023). PROPOSED BOND ELECTION. With a unanimous vote on Monday, January 9, 2023, the Fremont County Joint School District 215 board of trustees agreed to move forward with the proposed facilities additions and improvement bond. After years of research and months of working with a committee of patrons, staff, and the board, a design team presented a comprehensive long-term improvement plan.
The cost for the projects will be $59,980,000. It will include additions to Ashton Elementary, North Fremont High School, and South Fremont High School. A large portion of this bond is designated for Career Technical Education (CTE) also known as vocational technical education and skills training. There will also be improvements to the current facilities in areas of safety, counseling and mental health offices, and restrooms.
The vote will be held on March 14, 2023. Between now and the election, information will be taken to the communities. As soon as the design team completes its final report, it will also be posted on the district and school websites. Meetings will be held throughout the district with specific dates and locations forthcoming.
