GENERAL OBLIGATION BOND ISSUE PASSES

 

We would like to thank the Patrons of the district for the overwhelming support of the $1,000,000 General Obligation Bond Issue.  The renovations and improvements are scheduled to begin the summer of 2016.  We have had a long tradition of providing quality education to the children of our district and we enjoy excellent community support as evidenced by strong parental and community involvement.  We are fortunate to live in a community where education is a priority and students do come first!  We are so proud of this community and the way that it pulls together to show support for our school.

Thank you for always being there for your kids, our kids, and their future!  It has been said it takes a village to raise a child.  The village of Adair County R-II is one of a kind!

It is ALWAYS a GREAT day to be a Brashear Tiger!

 

Sincerely,

The Board of Education
