NEWTON, Kan. — The Newton USD 373 Board of Education is looking ahead to a bond issue to be put on the ballot in November to do work on Lindley Hall and the Santa Fe 5th and 6th grade center.
The board heard from Representatives from DLR, Gravity Works, and McCownGordon during their meeting Monday night to find out their conclusions from the physical examination of the Santa Fe building.
The cost looks to come in around $6 to $6.5 million, as estimated by the representatives Monday and the board voted 6-1 to continue forward with the process to put this on the ballot, while still looking ahead to a larger bond issue in 2025 to deal with overall growth in the district.
