“The Edmond Public Schools are critical to our future and passage of the 35.5 million dollar bond issue is critical to keep our school system moving forward to meet the needs of a growing population,” said Dr. Myron Pope, Chairman of the Board of the Edmond Area Chamber of Commerce. “We urge those who live in the areas served by the Edmond Public Schools to vote on November 8, 2011,” concluded Pope.

Construction of a new elementary school will help meet the needs of a growing population; improvements at existing schools will make teaching more effective and expansion of technology helps the schools keep pace with changing teaching methods…all important to a successful school system.

Details on the bond issue can be found at edmondschools.net.
