FACT: Clovis East High is overcrowded, with 5,000 students on campus this year and growing. In 2020, the community supported building Clovis South High in order to ease overcrowded conditions. Plans and a budget (that included normal inflation) were developed for Clovis South (located on the Terry Bradley Educational Center along with Sanchez Intermediate) before the pandemic. No one could have known that unprecedented post-pandemic inflation in construction costs would create a funding gap, but it did. Now, without Measure A the district cannot finish the high school and other solutions would have to be found to house the thousands of students slated to attend the Clovis South.

FACT:  All Clovis Unified schools would benefit from the bond. Funds would be designated for safety, energy efficiency and technology upgrades at every school campus across the district’s 198-square-mile area. From security window replacements to cameras and lighting, the upgrades would add to the protection of our students and staff.

Many people don’t realize that as of 2024, our community has a lower tax rate on school bonds than it did in 2020, 2010 or even 2000. They also don’t know that Clovis Unified residents pay a lower tax rate than people living in neighboring school districts like Fresno, Sanger and Central.
