New Hope has the most to gain from the 44 million dollar bond issue, with some 26 million dollars being earmarked for campus improvements, including a new high school.

A centralized vocational facility is also included, as well as improvements on all campuses.

Voters head to the polls May 12th – The bond will need a 60 percent majority to pass..
