The Oceanside Unified School District (OUSD) is making significant investments in its facilities to improve the education and well-being of its students and the community. The voters of Oceanside passed two bond measures, Prop H and Measure W, which has already provided funding for a variety of projects to upgrade and modernize district facilities.
Prop H, passed in 2008, is a $195 million bond measure. It has funded improvements to multiple schools, including the current modernization of Pablo Tac School of the Arts and the upcoming transformation of Jefferson Middle School.
Measure W, passed in 2020, is a $160 million bond measure funding the renovation and modernization at North Terrace, Reynolds Elementary and Surfside Educational Academy. Many other campus improvements will be underway as the result of Measure W. When completed, these campuses will be state-of- the-art learning environments for students.
“It’s important that our schools give students and staff a sense of pride,” said Dr. Julie Vitale, Oceanside Unified School District’s Superintendent. “The more they take pride in their education, the more they will get out of the experience and will grow to do amazing things.”
Oceanside Unified Board of Trustees President, Raquel Alvarez said, “We are so grateful to the community of Oceanside for investing in our district like this twice. Modernizing our campuses is one of the best gifts we can give our students. On behalf of my fellow Trustees, we continue to say thank you.”
