Au Gres-Sims School District

🎃CREATIVITY- As an extension activity to our positivity project that runs K-12, Mrs. Avram's kindergartners put their creativity to work and painting mini pumpkins! A huge shout out, thank you to Mrs. Avram's parents who generously donated 27 mini pumpkins to her very creative students! #WolverinesLead #PavingPossibilities

How would the proposed sinking fund work?

Money would be collected over time and kept separate from the district’s regular operating budget. Eligible projects would be completed gradually as funds become available.

The ballot language allows the fund to pay for eligible projects involving:

• School buildings
• Security
• Technology
• Student transportation
• Other purposes allowed by law

At the proposed rate, a property with a taxable value of $50,000 would have an estimated cost of $59 per year.

Find the ballot language, cost calculator, project list, and FAQ at www.ags-schools.org/page/2026-sinking-fund

Questions may be directed to Superintendent Chris Ming at mingc@ags-schools.org or (989) 876-7150.
