CUSD Bond Measure: Your Voice Matters!

The Cupertino Union School District (CUSD) Board is considering putting a new Bond measure on the November ballot. Since the normal revenue in CUSD just covers the operating costs, CUSD depends on bonds for facility maintenance and improvements. Unfortunately, the previous bond passed in 2012 (Measure H) ran out of money last year. If the bond measure is not approved by 55% of voters, CUSD will have no money for facility repairs. Please see here for more information.

The CUSD Board is also considering converting Meyerholz Elementary School into a new district office. The district plans to raise money through Certificates of Participation (similar to a mortgage) which wouldn’t require voter approval. Please see here for more information.

In this survey, I am seeking to understand whether you approve of the new bond measure, and which scenario you approve of. I would also like to know whether you think the district should build a new district office and whether it should be at Meyerholz.
