Measure C Bond Information
Measure C
Bond Funding for Franklin-McKinley School District Facilities
The district is grateful for the community's past support of school facility bonds. It remains committed to its mission of preparing all children as global learners by providing safe, modern, and well-equipped learning environments for all students and staff.
On June 2, 2026, voters in the Franklin McKinley School District community will consider Measure C, a $142 million school facilities bond. If approved, funding would be allocated in phases to support essential upgrades and improvements across district schools.
Measure C requires 55% voter approval to pass under Proposition 39.
A ”YES” vote approves funding for the District's facilities improvement plan.
A “NO” vote rejects funding for the District's facilities improvement plan.
Proposed Improvements
Measure C would fund repairs, upgrades, and replacements to address district-wide facility needs, including:
- Modernization of outdated school facilities and infrastructure
- Enhancements to campus safety and security systems
- Repairs or replacements of aging heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and electrical systems
- Upgrades to classrooms to support essential instructional technology
Fiscal Accountability
All Measure C funds would be subject to independent oversight by a community-based Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee. The committee would monitor project implementation, expenditures, and progress to ensure bond funds are used as approved/authorized by voters.
Annual financial and performance audits are conducted, and the results are presented publicly to the Board of Trustees to ensure transparency and accountability.
