On May 28, 2024, the Apache Junction Unified School District Governing Board called for a bond election to provide for increased safety, efficiency, security, and modernization projects within the district. The district is requesting funds for the following purposes:

•     Bolster safety and security measures across all school campuses.
•     Critical repair, preventative maintenance and modernization of aging schools and district buildings.
•     Replacement of bleacher system and press box at Apache Junction High School football field.
•     New construction of a state-of-the-art Athletic Field House at Apache Junction High School.
•     Purchase an additional school site to accommodate the expanding needs of our growing community.
•     Enhancement of all school and district parking facilities.

The estimated total cost of the bond projects is $20 million. This funding will enable us to provide a safe and effective learning environment, fostering success for all our students. The funds will be available to the district over a twenty-year period, ensuring long-term benefits for our community.

The estimated tax rate is $0.21 per $100.00 of net assessed valuation for secondary property tax purposes.

Below are some areas within our campuses targeted for improvement with School Bond funds.
