BOND FACT SHEET
Our District is in need of funds to address citations identified in the Mississippi Department of Education audit and
to provide needed upgrades to support quality learning.
Jackson Public Schools has the opportunity to issue general obligation bonds (GO Bonds) to fund capital
improvements at various schools in the District. The total amount of approximately $65 million will be used directly
toward making building improvements, renovations and/or construction at our schools.
Potential projects include:
• Replacing HVAC units at Forest Hill High School and Callaway High School.
• Completing the renovation of Newell Field.
• Adding science labs at all middle and high schools.
• Redesigning libraries to include internet cafés and other learning spaces for students.
• Updating the auditorium/performance space at Power APAC.
• Building a performance space at Forest Hill High School for APAC programs.
• Various infrastructure projects at schools, such as replacing carpets and windows, paving parking
lots and other such projects.
The District paid off some existing debt in April 2018 and now has the opportunity to reissue the debt to get these
additional funds. Because the existing debt was already being paid by taxpayers, reissuing the same amount will
not cause any increase in taxes paid by homeowners for Jackson Public Schools.
The date of the election is Tuesday, August 7.
