Maize Voters Approve $108 Million School Bond

Unofficial results from the Sedgwick County Elections Office show that voters in Maize approved a $108 million school bond. Voters have approved the plan to add two new intermediate schools, upgrade high schools, and add an auditorium, indoor pool,  playgrounds, and new indoor STEAM (science, technology engineering, arts and math) labs for elementary students. Maize school superintendent Chad Higgins says the bond issue will have zero impact on local taxes. The Maize school district says plans call for construction on its new intermediate schools to start in the fall with both schools opening by 2021. Currently, Maize Middle School is over-capacity and school staff had to add extra lockers last-minute and remove storage areas to make room for additional classrooms, the district says.
