Paola USD 368 is moving forward with plans to put a $40 million school bond question on the November 7th ballot. Superintendent Matt Meek and district staff will move forward with creating the ballot question wording so board members can review and approve it at their July meeting.
Some of the proposed changes, based on feedback include removing the previously proposed asphalt and turf field replacement projects, because they received some of the lowest support from community members in a survey. Also, eliminating the proposed career and technical education addition in the southeast portion of Paola High School, and instead modifying the existing weight room and multipurpose room to gain even more space for career and technical classes at the high school. There are also issues witch include HVAC, flooring, plumbing and electrical issues.
