School bonds are all over the ballot in Sacramento this fall. How do they work?

“ One thing that is really important to us is all kids across the district have equitable access to school facilities that meet our standard,” Castillo said. How can voters trust the money will be used appropriately?

Voters in each district will decide whether to approve the funding. A school bond is a mechanism that districts use to pay for upgrades and construction projects on campuses, which are generally referred to as capital improvement projects.
