In 2016, a $22 million referendum was passed by the taxpayers to "build out" or "complete" Central High School.  The Board of Education has two sets of approved minutes in July 2016 (page 3, item 5.2) and August 2016 (page 4, item 4.3) where they stated that the improvements covered by the $22 million would mean the high school could meet district growth for 20-25 years from project completion (2018).  Just 6 years later, in November 2022, the community was approached to approve $195 million referendum to build a brand new 450,000 sq.ft. high school that could accommodate 2,400-3,000 students.   

What happened to the 20-25 years of growth the community paid for through the $22 million referendum in 2016?  The improvements were completed in 2018 so this means they didn't even last 5 years.  What data was utilized by the district to determine the improvements to Central High School would accommodate growth for 20 years leading to a $22 million referendum to the taxpayers?

These calculations are performed in a formula that is used across the nation by demography firms working for school districts EVERYWHERE.  To say they used square footage instead of enrollment means we either have completely incompetent administration or they are covering up the fact that they performed NO due diligence in the months leading up to the 2016 referendum.
