Why is Melrose Area Schools pursuing a referendum now?
👉 Parts of our high school are do not meet ADA code requirements
👉 The original 1969 pool and gym flooring is nearing the end of it's usuable life
👉 Industrial Tech opportunities are limited due to appropriate space
👉 The longer we wait to address these needs, the higher likelihood of additional costs and time. Check out https://www.isd740.org/page/bond2023 for more information about the referendum.
Practice Begins Today for grades 7-12 Wrestling and grades 9-12 Boys Basketball. Go Dutchmen!
The necessary pain of dicing onions! Students are making baked mac and cheese in foods class.
