## About

The Ventura Unified School District takes great pride in the quality of education it provides to students. Quality schools improve student achievement, property values, neighborhood safety, and prepare students for productive futures. VUSD teachers and staff do a great job educating students but now it is time for the District to renovate its aging schools for continued student safety and success.

  

Although our schools have been well maintained over the years, the last major renovations to elementary and middle schools occurred in the 1990’s. Many outdated classrooms and facilities now require significant upgrades to meet 21st century standards. Currently, the average age of our schools in the District is 63 years. EP Foster Elementary, our oldest, was first built in 1929, and Ventura High School is over 84 years old! 

  

Our schools need major classroom and infrastructure improvements to continue providing quality education to local students. By investing in our neighborhood schools, we can strengthen our community and meet today’s safety, security, technology, and educational standards.

  

If passed, Measure E will upgrade, modernize, and renovate local classrooms and school facilities including:

-   Repairing and replacing leaky roofs
-   Constructing science labs and career technical educational facilities
-   Making health, safety, and security improvements
-   Renovating or replacing deteriorating plumbing and sewer systems
-   Upgrading inadequate electrical systems

  

Measure E makes financial sense and protects taxpayers.

-   By law, spending must be reviewed and annually audited by an independent citizens' oversight committee.
-   All funds must be spent locally and cannot be taken by the State.
-   Funds are required to be spent only on schools, not for administrator or teacher salaries.

  

Measure E upgrades and renovates old and inadequate classrooms, improves the education of local children, and maintains the quality of our community. That's something we can all support. Please join us and VOTE YES ON MEASURE E!
