Columbus, NE, seeks $43.6M bond to build a new school for grades 4-5 amid rising enrollment from new housing developments.
Columbus, Nebraska, is facing school overcrowding due to a population surge from five new housing developments, prompting the school district to seek a $43.6 million bond for a new intermediate school.
Officials expect 350 to 550 additional students in the next five years, straining four elementary schools already at capacity and Columbus Middle School, which exceeds its 1,200-student limit.
The new school, planned for a vacant lot north of the middle school, would serve fourth and fifth graders to ease overcrowding and improve transitions.
The plan follows successful models in Norfolk and Brookings.
A vote on the bond is set for November.
