📢 Prop M for MVR-III – No Tax Increase Bond 📢 is on the April 8th ballot and will allow MVR-III to build a net zero ready school, lowering energy costs and serving as an educational tool to teach students about sustainability practices, all while potentially saving money on utility bills to be allocated to other facilities across the district: 🧱Like the 2021 Zitzman addition, the new middle school would be built with ICF (Insulated Concrete Form) walls that provide superior energy efficiency and increased strength & durability. ⬇️The Zitzman addition is using 39% less energy per square foot than the national average for K-12 school buildings. ⚡Energy usage at ZE is 34% less than the previous structure, which is a direct energy cost savings to MVR-III! 🗳️ Prop M is a NO Tax Increase investment in our students and schools. Remember to Vote Tomorrow! #MVNation #MovingForwardTogether
