District 200 to Host Jefferson Referendum Information Meetings

To educate residents about the Jefferson Early Childhood Center referendum on the April election ballot, District 200 will host three information sessions beginning in February. 

Community Unit School District 200 will host three informational forums on the Jefferson Referendum beginning in February.

Earlier this month, the District 200 Board of Education passed a resolution to put the referendum question on the ballot, proposing to issue $17.6 million in bonds to rebuild Jefferson Early Childhood Center.

The question reads:

Shall the Board of Education of Community Unit School District Number 200, DuPage County, Illinois, build and equip a new early childhood center to replace the existing Jefferson Early Childhood Center, improve the site thereof and issue bonds of said School District to the amount of $17,600,000 for the purpose of paying the costs thereof?

The forums are scheduled for the following dates:

• Thursday, Feb. 21, 7 p.m., Wheaton North High School (Rooms 802-804)
• Wednesday, March 6, 7 p.m., Jefferson Early Childhood Center (Gymnasium)
• Monday, March 11, 7 p.m., Wheaton Warrenville South High School (LLC)

CUSD 200 Superintendent Dr. Brian Harris and Jefferson Principal Stephanie Farrelly will share the details about the Jefferson project and also answer questions from the public.  All are invited to attend.
