Passage of the 2017 Bond Proposal allowed Edmond Schools to make numerous changes and upgrades to our schools. A significant portion of the bond money is being used to complete the process of having storm shelters on every campus. Other significant projects in the 2017 bond issue include the construction of new classrooms and upgrades to existing classrooms as well as stadium upgrades at Memorial and North high schools. Passage of the bond issue allows every school in the district to benefit either by receiving new educational materials, building upgrades and additions, or safety and technology improvements.
