The Facilities Task Force explored numerous options, including renovation. However, the cost to bring current buildings up to code is estimated at $60,182,976, excluding potential unforeseen expenses commonly associated with renovating older facilities. Renovations would also involve significant abatement costs and the need to account for rising construction expenses in 2025. Furthermore, the state would likely reduce its funding contribution if the district pursued renovations over a new, consolidated PreK-12 facility. By comparison, constructing a new building is estimated to cost $69,204,575, with the state contributing 29%. Additional considerations, such as the cost of installing modern HVAC systems in existing buildings, would also need to be considered in the cost of renovation.
It's National School Bus Driver Appreciation Day! Our drivers are the first and the last people our Redbirds see during the school day, and we are so grateful for their dedication to a safe trip to and from school. Help us celebrate their hard work!
Kindergarten screening will take place on April 25 at Loudonville Zion Lutheran Church. Please visit our website for full registration details and requirements.
Under the Classroom Facilities Assistance Program (CFAP), assistance “is based on the assessed property valuation per student. That property wealth factor determines the state and local share of the facilities project. CFAP takes a comprehensive approach with local districts by addressing the entire facility needs of a district from kindergarten through 12th grade (OFCC)."
This means that the higher the property value in a community, the lower the percentage of state funding and vice versa. Because of the recent increase in property values in our county, including increases in Current Agricultural Use Value (CAUV), the percentage of state funding from the OFCC has been reduced. You can see the reduction of state funding over time:
• March 2004 - State share 50%
- Bond issue amount: $19,250,000 - Term 28 years
• May 2010 - State share 40%
- Bond issue amount: $22,606,841 - Term 38 years
• November 2024 - State share 29%
- Bond issue amount $55,536,493 - Term 37 years.
• May 2025 - State share 29%, District Contribution (with COPS) 12%
• Bond issue amount $37 million - Term 37 years.
• Income tax amount $4 million - Term 23 years.

Whether it is elementary night at a game or a special moment after for autographs, we are lucky to have such positive mentors for our elementary students!
