On November 6, the Oak Creek-Franklin community chose to shape the future of our community’s schools by voting to approve the 2018 referendum. We are sincerely grateful for the generous support from our community. Whether you participated all year long on the various public forums and surveys or just voted to voice your views, we sincerely appreciate your involvement in making this critical decision. With the passing of the 2018 referendum, we will be able to deliver to our learners, and the community improved safety, security and accessibility at our schools, expanded educational opportunity for all our students, more equitable learning spaces across schools, including finally being able to separate the cafeteria from the physical education space in five schools, and address necessary maintenance throughout the district. These will be delivered on time and at or under the budget you have approved.
What’s Next?
Work on the detailed design will take place over the next
six to eight months. Once the designs
are complete and the specifications are written, the work will go out for
competitive bids. Construction visible to our employees and the public will
most likely start in summer or early fall 2019 with most of the work taking
place across 2020. The district will coordinate construction phases and timing
to cause the least disruption to our programs, including summer school. This careful phasing will push finishing all
projects into the summer of 2021. We will be sure to provide updates on the
work being done on the district website.
All community members are encouraged to join our email list to receive
updates directly to their email inbox.
