During the regularly scheduled meeting of the Altus Board of Education, the Board approved a resolution authorizing the calling and holding of a Special General Obligation Bond Election. Members of the board agreed to a 6.7 million dollar bond which would be a continuation of the 2019 bond and will not be an increase in current property taxes. The proposed 6.7 million dollars will be dedicated to building a safe room at Altus Elementary that will double as classrooms and a state-of-the-art library media/STEM center, as well as completing Phase II of Kiwanis Park, the school’s baseball/softball complex. The election will take place on February 13, 2024.
Specific information regarding the bond election will be released in the upcoming weeks. Please follow our Altus Public Schools website and social media sites to stay well informed.
