Building Bond Referendum, Operating Levy and School Board ResultsOn November 6th, 2018, residents voted to allow Holdingford Public Schools to issue building bonds to address space needs, aging infrastructure, safety, security, and site-related needs as well as improvements for our technology equipment and infrastructure. Holdingford Public Schools would like to thank our residents for supporting our students, staff, and schools by passing this referendum. This project will allow our District to address physical facility needs and better meet the changing needs of educational and instructional programs through updated technology.
Now that the referendum has been approved, we will begin the design process and set construction timelines with the input of our community. We thank everyone that was actively involved throughout this important process for the needs of our Holdingford students, and we look forward to the future of our District with your support.
