No Deal – State School Bond Update

Posted on December 22, 2015 by CASH

December 22, 2015

In response to the lack of state funding for school facilities, the Coalition for Adequate School Housing (C.A.S.H.) has qualified a State School Bond for the November 2016 ballot.  The initiative provides $9 billion for New Construction ($3 billion) and Modernization ($3 billion) projects, as well as Career Technical Education ($500 million), Charter Schools ($500 million), and Community Colleges ($2 billion).  The initiative also preserves the School Facility Program (SFP) under Chapter 12.5 of the Education Code.  C.A.S.H. has taken this significant action because we believe the California Constitution requires the state to be a partner in school construction and renovation to ensure that schools are, “…safe, secure and peaceful” (Article IX Section 5 and Article 1 Section 28).  C.A.S.H. believes that California’s children are worth the investment.

Quarterly Message from the Chair

Posted on December 7, 2015 by CASH

December 4, 2015

It has been an exciting few months as Chair of the organization. All of the energy and excitement surrounding qualifying the State School Bond Initiative for the November 7, 2016, general election ballot, and now transitioning to campaigning, has reminded me that C.A.S.H. has the strength of our members to make the bond measure succeed.

Posted on December 4, 2015 by CASH

The only constant in education is change. As education and curriculum evolves, the learning environment must adapt, as well. San Marcos Unified School District (SMUSD) had a goal to transform their oldest high school into a 21st-century campus—with new learning facilities for the students, staff and community—at San Marcos High School (SMHS).
