Thank you for helping Bond Measure AA pass at 71.41 percent!
The passage of general obligation bond Measure AA in November’s midterm election marks a feat of voter affirmation for the Milpitas Unified School District.
“The community’s ‘Yes on AA’ has ignited the momentum towards realizing our Strategic Goals and reimagining school for our future MUSD graduates!” says Superintendent Cheryl Jordan.
It passed by a 71.41 percent margin (13,479 votes), according to the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters office.
“Thank you Milpitas for casting your vote in favor of Measure AA,” says Daniel Bobay, Clerk of the Milpitas Board of Education. “We appreciate your confidence in the school district and we appreciate our partners in the city.
“It’s a win win for the residents of Milpitas, the economic development, and, most importantly, the future of the education system in Milpitas,” says Board President Chris Norwood. “We look forward to full participation of the city as well as community leaders and businesses as well.”
“We now have opportunities that we can realize and full support from our community to make our schools the best in the county,” he said.
The election followed months of preparation including precinct walking and phone-banking by the independent campaigning committee Community Supporting Students for Outstanding Schools that included parents, staff members, a student, and a member of the TBWB consulting firm. The Committee chaired by PTA President Silvia Dias worked with board members, high school students, parents, teachers, support staff, principals, District leaders, and the community to review needs and develop a plan for Milpitas schools.
The $284 million in collected bond monies will be spread across four categories: safety and security, modernization, overcrowding, and a second high school campus. Stakeholders meetings will be held in March and April for facilities planning. Safety and modernization projects will be implemented as soon as school is out for the summer.
“Thank you Milpitas leaders, parents, community, and MUSD staff and students for your commitment to providing our children with safe and secure schools, state of the art learning facilities, and the future home of our second high school campus at Ayer Educational Park!” Jordan says.
