School bonds pass in Union, Jenks, Skiatook districts

Voter turnout low

Voters approved school bonds in three districts Tuesday.

There's a catch though.

Voter turnout was low, but Union district voters gave the nod to spend $26-million for more classrooms, computers and software.

The passage won't increase taxes, but it will extend the time it takes to pay off the current tax.

The money also will go for building a new elementary school opening this summer.

Bond issues worth $10.4 million also passed in Jenks, while the Skiatook district also passed $19-million for technology and transportation.
