We firmly believe that investing in our schools is an investment in the success of our community. This bond issue will support the growth of McLoud Public Schools and will provide students and staff with a safe environment to thrive and prepare for the future. A thriving school is a thriving community.
We have been able to make many upgrades with our ESSER funds and have also invested our general and building funds to better our facilities. We have replaced numerous floors throughout the district, installed new camera systems for security, put in new fencing for barriers, upgraded teacher and student seating, replaced some heating and air units, as well as invested in technology and curriculum needs. However, we need community support to make these larger additional investments in our district that improve safety and add to student engagement.
We understand the implementation of this plan will have an impact on our patrons via new tax rates. We are committed to responsible fiscal management, ensuring that we remain transparent with how this plan will affect our taxpayers. Below you will find a chart completed by our bond company, Bank of Oklahoma, that shows how the bond issue will directly impact you as a taxpayer in McLoud School District.

As part of the Capital Improvement Plan, we propose the conversion of our football field from grass to a cutting-edge turf field, complete with clearly marked lines for soccer. This upgrade will improve existing drainage issues and provide an all-weather playing surface, enhancing the overall experience for our athletes. But that's not all, it also includes the addition of a brand-new 6-lane track, as well as, dedicated areas for all field events, including long jump, high jump, pole vault, shot put, and discus. Allowing McLoud to host small track meets year to year. The current track team, over 100 student athletes, currently run and practice on a 200 meter grass track, if passed, this Capital Improvement Plan will provide our student athletes the adequate resources they need to truly stand out! Beyond the physical improvements, we believe that investing in top-notch sports facilities will attract exceptional talent in teachers, coaches, and student athletes. In today's world of open transfer, we want to be a destination where people are wanting to join. Stay tuned for more updates and mark your calendars for the upcoming bond proposal vote on September 12.

Is this what you want your child's school to look like? Stained ceiling tiles, dated science labs, and worn-out equipment? These are just a few of the signs that our school's infrastructure desperately needs attention. Old plumbing, leaky roofs and struggling air conditioners only add to the discomfort our students and staff endure daily. The proposed Capital Improvement Plan addresses all of this failing infrastructure. If passed, we can create an environment where our students can flourish, teachers can thrive, and the entire community can take pride in our school. Stay tuned for more updates and mark your calendars for the upcoming bond proposal vote on September 12. Visit McLoudSchools.us for the full Capital Improvement Plan.

The Capital Improvement Plan proposes extending the High School to the south. This will add 12 brand new classrooms, each designed to foster an optimal learning environment, including two new technology rooms, science lab and art room. All intending to help mold our student's desire and growth within the highly competitive STEM world. As part of this expansion, we'll also be remodeling existing special needs classrooms, ensuring that they are equipped with the latest tools and resources to cater to the unique needs of our students, including their own restrooms, changing areas and laundry access.
