The cost of the bond project will continue to rise due to inflation. In just a few years, the project will cost significantly more.

The bond will ensure our district is planning for JCN's future. As inflation rises, the cost of each project will continue to rise. Now is the best time to invest in our schools.

This graphic details the estimated cost of the proposed 5.5 million dollar bond project. We still retain 6% state aid for the bond to help fund. The community survey found that a majority of people would support a bond with around a $75.00 yearly increase in property taxes.
