Just like the roof on your home, school roofs need to be replaced and restored over time. Five elementary schools and the damaged Chugiak/Eagle River schools will receive new or restored roofs if the proposed school bond is passed on April 2.

Many of ASD’s elementary schools were built in the 1960s and 1970s during the population boom. At the time, it was convenient for the schools’ main offices to be in the center of their buildings. In today’s climate, there are safety concerns with the office being farther away from main entry points of schools. With student and staff safety in mind, the proposed school bond would enable school entryway upgrades that will provide additional security and safety improvements at nearly one-third of Anchorage elementary schools.

Thank you voters! In 2017, voters passed ASD’s bond proposal to repair damage sustained to West High and Romig Middle School’s library during the 7.1 earthquake on January 1, 2016. The repairs included structural upgrades, the addition of five classrooms, and improved flexibility for the shared library. Thanks to these repairs, the library maintained its integrity during the earthquake that caused major damage to some of our other schools on November 30, 2018.

Bond Proposition 1 includes funding for earthquake recovery dedicated to Chugiak and Eagle River schools. Both schools sustained enough damage from the November 30, 2018 earthquake that they will require major repairs including seismic improvements, recommended roof replacement, and other repairs needed in order to reopen in the future. Both the Gruening Middle School and Eagle River Elementary School facilities will both be offline during the 2019-2020 school year.
