PROGRAM
Orcutt Union School District - Facilities Project
 
This week's program was presented by Dr. Debbie Blow, Superintendent of the Orcutt Union School District.  The district serves approximately 5,300 students at five elementary schools, two Jr. High Schools, three Kindergarten through 8th grade schools (two of which are Charter Programs), and a Charter High School. 
 
Recently the district underwent a Facilities Master Planning process with broad input from district stakeholder groups.   This process demonstrated that while the facilities have been well cared for, there is a great need for repairs and updating to their 55-70 year old buildings.  Therefore upon the administration's recommendation, the Board of Trustees has placed a Bond Measure (Measure G) on the November Ballot.  This measure will upgrade aging infrastructures, replace aging portables with permanent buildings, increase school safety, and bring campuses up to modern code.  Every site will have a project as a results of the bond.
