The Indianola School Board approved the $70 million bond issue for improvements to Indianola High School at their meeting last week, which will now go out to the voters in September. Superintendent Ted Ihns tells KNIA News he feels the plans for the “Replace in Place” option were the best option for the board, and will update the education areas of the school.

“Traveling and navigating through the building is a little bit more difficult now, and with the new bond issue we hope to have a main front entrance, a commons area, updated classrooms, and natural lighting. An overall facelift of replacing what is currently there except for the auditorium and the gymnasium that are currently there, updating the consumer tech areas and all of those pieces.”

The bond referendum will go to the public on September 13th. Find voter registration information =below.
