Atchison Public Schools made another step forward towards pursuing a bond election this fall.
The USD 409 board heard a presentation on the next steps from Lori Lanter Monday night.
She said the financial model is still intact with an expected no mill increase by refinancing and extending the life of the current bond.
They board also hired HTK Architects to do an initial analysis on the proposed facilities the district wants to construct to not exceed seven million dollars.
Superintendent Susan Myers says while no action has been given by the board to put a bond to ballot, a target goal has been set to do the work to pursue a November election.
