South Lyon Community Schools will have a hefty bond proposal on the ballot for the November general election.

If approved, the bond would result in a zero-millage-rate increase on a $350 million bond proposal for capital projects including safety and security improvements, the expansion of the Early Childhood Center, significant building renovations including the Center for Active Adults, instructional technology upgrades, and enhancements to athletic and arts facilities.

“We have a unique opportunity to make transformational improvements for our students, staff, and community members without adding tax burden to community members,” said Board President Anthony Abbate.

“As we continue to support our community and provide the highest quality educational experience, our facilities must evolve alongside our students’ growing passions for learning, “said Superintendent Steven Archibald. “Education has transformed dramatically over the past century, and we want every student to walk into a classroom feeling not only empowered to excel as individuals but also safe and supported.”
