GET INFORMED: MEASURE A – WHY FUNDS ARE NEEDED TO FINISH CLOVIS SOUTH

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.

Whether Measure A passes or fails our tax rate will remain the same into the future, it is only over time that a "no" vote would eventually lower the tax rate from its existing rate. Voters are being asked to, by extending the current tax rate, keep doing the same thing they've been doing since 2012 so our schools can remain in good shape.
