Exciting News from Ferndale Public Schools!
On the evening of January 27, 2025, during a regular Board of Education meeting, the Ferndale Schools Board of Education unanimously approved a bond proposal to be presented to the community for a vote on May 6, 2025.
This bond proposal, totaling $114.8 million, will provide transformational improvements to the Ferndale Middle and High School building. Focused on creating modern, collaborative learning spaces and ensuring safety and accessibility, the bond will generate these much-needed enhancements. If approved voters can expect no increase in their tax rates.
Key proposed projects include:
A new academic wing to replace the aging 1950s west wing, ensuring separation of middle and high school spaces.
Modernized classrooms and expanded common areas for 21st-century, flexible learning.
Safer entry points and improved student services, particularly for middle schoolers.
Upgraded band rooms to better serve middle and high school music programs.
This proposal builds on the success of the 2020 bond, which revitalized our elementary school learning environments, aiming to bring equitable improvements to all grade levels.
