Measure G Bond

Inspiring Learners for a Lifetime!

Upcoming Bond Measure Placed on the November 2024 Ballot 

 Key Points about the Bond Measure:

  • The cost of the Bond Measure will not exceed existing tax rates. The measure will cost $30 per each $100,000 of assessed value (not market value) of a person’s property. Because our Measure W (1998) bond tax is expiring soon, the new measure will essentially replace that one, thereby providing additional financial resources without increasing existing tax rates.

  • The Bond Measure will generate $71 million for school improvements: The measure will generate $71 million for continuing essential repairs, upgrades, and improvements to our school facilities. Key projects are described below.

  • The Bond Measure requires accountability to the community: All funds raised will stay local to support Alta Loma School District and may not be taken away by the state. Our bond measure will require annual performance and financial audits as well as oversight by an independent citizens’ oversight committee. Bond funds may only be used for capital expenses and not salaries, benefits and pensions.

 Key Projects to be Funded by the Bond Measure:

1.  Remove remaining hazardous materials like asbestos/lead pipes from older schools;

2. Enhance student safety/campus security systems including fencing, security doors, cameras, emergency communications, smoke detectors, fire alarms, and sprinklers;

3. Provide classrooms, facilities, and technology needed to support instruction in math, science, and engineering;

4. Repair remaining older classrooms/ school facilities, including deteriorating roofs, plumbing, sewer, heating, ventilation, and electrical systems;

5. Renovate one older school to meet current health /building safety codes; ensuring proper access for students with disabilities;

6. Upgrade classrooms/computer systems to keep pace with instructional technology.

We are proud of the significant improvements we were able to accomplish through our 2016 Measure H bond. Every school benefited from upgrades focused on safety and security, such as keyless entry, playground equipment, Wi-Fi access and infrastructure upgrades, new phone systems, and much more. By prioritizing and scaling back on some of our projects, we were able to stretch the funds to complete significant modernization for 8 out of our 10 schools, particularly in the areas of science, technology, engineering and math. A new measure will enable us to build on our progress and address continuing needs.

Necessary Repairs in Alta Loma School District

Here in Alta Loma School District, we are proud to have a reputation for strong student achievement, as well as multiple California Distinguished School Awards and a Blue Ribbon School in our district. Great schools improve the quality of life in our community and protect the value of our homes.

Some ALSD schools are now over 50 years old, and many need to be brought up to the same standards as newer schools. Roofs are beginning to need replacement, outdated electrical systems will not support current technology standards and portable classrooms need to be replaced with permanent buildings. To meet current academic and safety standards, our schools need to be modernized and updated.

In order to maintain modern schools and promote a high-quality education, the Alta Loma School District Board of Trustees voted to place Measure H, a $58 million bond measure, on the November 8, 2016 ballot to update local schools. On this page, you can find informational materials regarding Measure H.

Measure H Overview

On November 8, 2016, the voters of the Alta Loma School District authorized Measure H under the Proposition 39 statutes.  The net proceeds of the Bonds are intended to be used to replace or repair deteriorating roofs; plumbing; electrical and air conditioning systems; improve access for students and families with disabilities; improve student safety and campus security systems; including security/lighting, security cameras, fencing, emergency communication systems, smoke detectors, fire alarms, and sprinklers; and update technology in the classrooms for improved student learning in core subjects like reading, math, science, and technology.
