2016 Bond Program Logo

The Five Star community made a significant investment in students and schools with the passage of a $350 million bond issue without a tax rate increase in November 2016. All projects were delivered as promised.


This multi-year bond program allowed the district to:
  • Build and open a new P-8 school (Thunder Vista P-8).
  • Build and open a second district career and technical education campus (FutureForward @ Washington Square).
  • Build classroom expansions and eliminate mobiles at two existing district schools (Arapahoe Ridge and Cotton Creek elementary schools).
  • Improvements at each district school and facility, including critical renovations and investments at aging school buildings.
  • Critical safety and security improvements including expanded digital camera installation, secured entrance vestibules and expanded electronic building access.
  • Technology improvements including a new self-provisioned district network, interactive technology in a large number of classrooms and a new district phone system.
