Elyria City Schools Bond and Levy Attempts Gate Deficit
During 1994 95 the district used a program review to craft a priority plan for schools. A 28 member Future Directions Steering Committee gathered 1600 surveys and 17 dialogues to back a November 1994 bond for facility expansion including two equal high schools, which failed. Two 1995 operating levy attempts failed, a 6.2 mill renewal passed in November 1995, leaving a projected 5.3 million-dollar shortfall by 1996 97.
