I am writing to respectfully ask for clarification from those who voted against the recent school bond election. With 94% of ballots returned that were mailed out, it seems there was robust civic engagement, yet the bond still failed by nearly 400 votes. As a concerned community member and the Superintendent of the School District, I am trying to understand the rationale behind the 'no' votes. Is there a perception that the school is not being transparent or responsive enough regarding the need for a new building? Are voters unconvinced that a new facility is truly necessary? Or are there other factors at play? This bond failure despite high voter turnout suggests there are lingering questions or objections within our community. I invite those who voted 'no' to send me an email, (jgraves@teameureka.net), call me (406-297-5650), or fill out the anonymous survey on our school website, (www.lchigh.net) and help explain your perspective. Increased dialogue and understanding could pave the way for an eventual compromise. We all want what is best for our kids and community. Clarifying the objections to the bond will allow the school board to better address any issues. With open communication and good faith on all sides, we can find a path forward. Our community is at its best when we speak and listen to each other with care and consideration. Again, I encourage you to reach out to me or fill out the anonymous survey on our website. Sincerely, Joel Graves, Superintendent, Eureka Public Schools Anonymous Survey: https://forms.gle/uneEQY1ZYnUH18cs7
