Measure S and Measure HH History: Dedicated Local Funding for School Improvement
In November of 2016, the Bayshore community passed a General Obligation Bond, Measure S, to help build the current Preschool-8th grade facility at 155 Oriente Street. The final financing of this bond occurred in February 2025. Short-term and long-term plans for this money are discussed at board meetings.
In November 2024, the Bayshore community once again showed its support for the Bayshore Elementary School District by passing a General Obligation Bond, Measure HH. As approved by local voters, this measure will enable the following once the bond is financed:
- Making health, safety, and handicapped accessibility improvements
- Improving student access to computers and modern technology
- Constructing a new middle school to prevent future overcrowding
- Making energy-efficient improvements, including installing solar panels
- Constructing/modernizing school facilities, including a new wellness center
Additionally, Measures S and HH require mandatory fiscal accountability, which includes that:
- All funds stay local to support BESD students and can not be taken by the State.
- No money can be used for salaries or benefits of staff.
- Citizens oversight, independent audits, and a detailed project list are required to ensure funds are spent as promised.
