Bethel School District Bond Measure

The Bethel Bond Measure was approved in November 2020 with a 66% Yes vote. The bond was carefully crafted to not increase anyone’s current tax rate while providing $99.3 million for important no-frills improvements throughout the District.

The bond will supply much-needed textbooks and computers for our students, update school security features, make major repairs to roofs and siding, rebuild Cascade Middle School (our oldest school,) provide high school Vocational Education facilities for hands-on learning programs, update our ventilation and heating systems, and more.
