NORTH TAMA COUNTY COMMUNITY SCHOOL DISTRICT​​
Addressing Our Space & Facility Needs
BOND VOTE: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 2023
​
While the North Tama Community School District has provided an excellent educational experience to generations of students, we have a series of facility needs that we must address soon.
By acting now, we can address these needs and ensure our district continues to provide excellent learning environments for students now and in the years to come.
​
In March 2023, a proposed bond issue to address the district’s facility needs fell just short of the 60% voter approval needed to pass. Since then, our facility needs have not changed. District leaders and the School Board have been working to find an alternative solution to these needs—one our community can support.

Proposed Solution
​
On Tuesday, November 7, 2023, North Tama County residents will vote on a bond issue. If it's approved, the district will move ahead with Phase I of its facilities master plan. This includes the following projects at North Tama County High School:
-
East side addition (new high school) with new classrooms & collaboration spaces
-
Secure entry upgrades
-
Locker room/weight room reconfiguration to provide required handicapped accessibility
-
Pave existing parking lot
-
Selective maintenance for other areas
​
If the bond is approved, the largest estimated impact on a home assessed at $100,000 would be $172.73 per year, or $14.39 per month. The estimated tax impact on an average 40-acre field of farmland within the North Tama County Community School District would be $253.72 per year, or $21.14 per month.
