If the bond passes, what can the money be spent on?
State law requires that bond money ban only be spend on what is included in the ballot language. It CANNOT be spent on salaries, bonuses, operating expenses or routine maintenance etc. Expenditures of bond money, by law, is limited to projects like school infrastructure, new construction, renovations, school buses and technology needs. State law also requires an independent audit of the dollars spent from a bond program.

A Message from Nurse Sayer:
This school year DHD#10 will more than likely not be able to make it into most schools to provide services due to staffing. The alternative plan is to offer clinics at DHD#10 offices. We understand this is not the most ideal and we apologize for the inconvenience.
I have attached a flyer with the 3 upcoming clinics, one in Wexford County, one in Mason County, and one in Oceana County. Children can also have vision checked with an eye doctor; hearing can be checked off by most primary care offices.

We’re one week away from election day!
Remember to vote on or before November 4.

How will the bond proposal impact my taxes?
The bond is designed so that there will not be a change to the estimated 2025 tax rate compared to the 2024 tax rate. Meaning, the tax rate you paid in 2024, 7.5 mills for the current debt is expected to remain the same in 2025 if the bond proposal is approved.
