The Hallsville School District is hosting a community forum Tuesday night to discuss Proposition 2 and four-day school weeks.
District leaders will be giving an update on its bond issues for construction projects and the continuation of the district’s four-day school week for students and staff.
The forum will be in the Secondary Cafeteria at 6 p.m. on Tuesday.
The Hallsville School District’s $6.5 million bond no-tax increase to complete the second part of a three-phase plan for construction was approved during the April 8 election.
The bond would address:
Growing student population
Security upgrades
Improve parking and traffic flow
Building new classrooms at the primary school
New baseball field
However, the auditor’s office would not authorize the bond because the Boone County Clerk’s Office didn’t follow the newspaper publication requirements listed in state law, according to previous reporting.
The district will be discussing its four-day school week that has been in place since the 2022-2023 school year. Leaders will explain what it means for students, staff, and families, along with key dates and what is required by law.
Both will be on the Nov. 4, ballot.
