Did you know that public schools can only make facility repairs or improvements through specific voter-approved funding? This upcoming ballot includes a proposal that directly impacts the safety, infrastructure, and long-term health of our district buildings.
🏫 Our schools are decades old. While our students and staff work hard every day, the buildings themselves need care—just like any home does over time.
This vote is an opportunity to stay informed, ask questions, and learn how your support can help maintain safe, efficient learning environments for all students.

🎒 If these walls could talk… they’d remind you of spelling bees, homecoming assemblies, school dances, and Christmas Break countdowns.
But they’d also whisper:
“I’m leaking. I’m cold in the winter. I’m outdated and tired.”
🛠️ The August 5 Sinking Fund vote helps us take care of aging roofs, failing heating systems, and worn entryways.
No frills. Just fixing what needs fixing.
💬 And if these walls could talk, they’d say “Thank you.”

🗳️ WAIT… THERE’S A VOTE IN AUGUST? YES, AND IT’S KIND OF A BIG DEAL.
No, we’re not electing the next class president—but we are deciding the future of our school buildings.
On August 5, you’ll see a Sinking Fund Millage on the ballot. And no, it doesn’t mean the school is sinking—we’re doing just fine floating—but our roofs, boilers, and security systems could really use a lift.
💡 What does it mean?
✅ No debt
✅ No interest
✅ Every dollar stays right here in Grant
Let’s take care of the schools that have taken care of us.
Mark your calendar. Sharpen your pencil. Or just bring a pen to the polls—we’re not picky.
