Melrose High school was built more than 50 years ago, long before accommodations for people with disabilities were required by law.
The only way to access the locker rooms and industrial tech classrooms are by staircase, making it inaccessible to some students and community members.
Bathrooms and showers do not have adequate turning radius for wheelchairs, which means there are students who need to travel across the building to the auditorium to use the bathroom.
Referendum approval would upgrade the high school locker rooms, technical education space and bathroom areas to allow access for all users, even those with mobility limitations or injuries.
Vote now via absentee ballot at the school district office weekdays from 7am-3:30pm. Learn more at https://www.isd740.org/page/bond2023
