CONCEPTUAL PLAN

If the $38.51 million bond referendum is approved by at least 60% of voters on Tuesday, November 5, the Fairfield Community School District will use these funds to construct a new middle school for students in grades 4-8.

​

We believe that building a new middle school is the best course of action, as it will:

​

  • Allow Fairfield CSD to strengthen its facilities for future generations of students in grades 4-8.

  • Provide more resources and programming options for students.

  • Expand our preschool program at Washington Elementary.

  • Make the district more appealing to new families and potential residents.

  • Allow the district to accommodate growing enrollment and operate at a positive rate for open enrollment.

  • Help retain current staff and attract new hires.

  • Enhance the community as a whole and help create a vibrant economic boost.

The total project budget for the new middle school is $56 million, with $21 million funded by SAVE — a statewide sales tax that does not increase local property taxes. Leveraging SAVE revenue that FCSD receives will lessen the burden for property taxpayers.

​

Our goal is to keep the middle school project cost below $56 million. Using SAVE funds as a financial buffer will help manage unforeseen expenses.
