St. Charles School District Bond Request Fails, Impacting Infrastructure Plans
What happened
St. Charles School District 303's request for a $282.5 million bond issuance failed to obtain the necessary votes in a recent election. In contrast, Yorkville School District 115 and Oswego School District 308 successfully passed their respective bond referendum questions, according to unofficial results. The three districts had collectively requested over $700 million for renovations and infrastructure work.
