Bond update
Maybe the school board will finalize its project list this month, maybe it won't. Chairman Alan Duncan is anxious to get his fellow board members to that point soon.
The board heard an hour-long update on the proposed November bond referendum at 10 p.m. Tuesday. Members plan to discuss it again on March 29. The list now has 33 projects and totals $512 million, including inflation. Here are the five-year projections for the district.
I will post the project list package once I get electronic copies, but let me know if you have any specific questions. One question that came up on The Chalkboard recently was the fate of students with autism in the county. The current list specifies autism facilities at four locations: Ragsdale High, Southeast area elementary school, airport area middle school and Craven.

Thanks for both the bond project list and the projections. Both are very useful.
Is the plan to put all the pre-school age severely autistic kids at Craven, all the elementary age severely autistic kids at SE, etc.? Alternatively, will severely autistic kids of all ages attend one of the mini-centers close to home, so that, for instance,Ragsdale's autism mini-center will have kids from age 6 to 22?
