School Construction Bond Projects Improve Learning Experience
Two kindergarten classrooms, and a middle school cafeteria, and a climbing wall are among the numerous facility improvements made possible in 2016 with investments from Berkeley’s local school construction bond funds. Each year these locally approve voter funds are used in strategic ways to improve student safety and enrich school life for Berkeley’s children and youth.
This document presented to the board in June, 2018 provides a brief overview of the status of upcoming projects.
