(St. Leon, Ind.) - Taxpayers in the Sunman-Dearborn Community Schools district can learn about a proposed multi-million dollar facilities improvement project at the schools this week.
The school corporation and engineers have identified between $25 million and $48 million in upgrades which could be made. The items range from new roofs to a new high school swimming pool.
District administrators will hold three public presentations Monday and Tuesday, August 5 and 6. The first is Monday at 7:00 p.m. There are two presentations Tuesday at 6:00 and 7:00 p.m. Each will be held at the East Central High School Performing Arts Center.
Sunman-Dearborn Community Schools superintendent Andrew Jackson has said the building projects could be funded without raising property taxes from their current rates.
