Ark City voters will decide the future of local schools on Nov. 4, 2025. Two proposed bond measures would improve safety, modernize learning spaces, and expand early childhood education across USD 470. State aid is expected to cover 30% of the principal and interest costs. Proposition 1 includes Arkansas City Middle School additions and districtwide upgrades. Proposition 2 would build a new Pre-K Center if Proposition 1 passes. Learn more, view tax impacts, and explore project details at usd470.com/district/bond.
