On Tuesday, Fort Mill residents backed a $204 million bond referendum aimed at expanding and upgrading the educational infrastructure within the district.
Unofficial results from the York County Board of Elections highlighted the community’s support, with 64% of the 3,807 votes cast favoring the initiative, against a 36% dissent.
The bond will finance the construction of a new middle school and an early childhood development facility, illustrating the district’s commitment to enhancing educational foundations from an early age. In addition to these pivotal projects, the funding will ensure technology upgrades across schools, acquisition of property for future educational facilities, and necessary maintenance for existing buildings.
Further actions await as Fort Mill School Board members are set to give the final approval, solidifying the bond’s application towards the envisaged projects.
