In April 2021, district voters approved a .60 cent tax levy increase and a $45-million no-tax increase bond measure. The proposals are designed to provide long term financial stability for the Grandview C-4 School District by balancing the budget, maintaining the ability to pay teachers a competitive salary, and enabling the district to continue its program of keeping buildings well maintained with up-to-date learning spaces.

 

The District has already begun the process of making good on its promise this summer to Keep Improving District Schools. Various improvements on district facilities are in the works or are being planned this year with the no-tax increase bond issue.

 

Those improvements include:
Grandview High School’s(GHS) industrial technology area,
GHS Bulldog Stadium visitor side renovation,
GHS cafeteria remodel,
District fine arts area renovations;
Complete district athletic facility improvements;
Remodel restrooms and complete a new gym and fine arts addition to the Martin City school;
Install new windows at Grandview Middle School and Meadowmere Elementary;
Complete playground improvements;
Renovate locker rooms at all middle and high school sites;
(to the extent funds are available) complete HVAC improvements, camera system replacement, card key access system installation, roofing repairs and replacement, hallway and floor and ceiling improvements plus other small projects (such as musical instrument purchase) and improvements to the existing facilities of the District.

Projects are slated to take place through the 2024-2025 school year.
