The Riverside County Registrar of Voters has confirmed the passage of Measure GG with 57% of the vote in favor of the measure. We understand and take seriously that the community has entrusted us with a profound responsibility. As such, we will continue our tradition of excellence and build upon our community’s confidence in our schools. Together, we will proceed down a prudent and transparent path as we carry out the projects afforded by the passage of this bond. The next step in this process is the formation of the Citizens Oversight Committee, which will occur as early as February 2015. The law requires a Citizens Oversight Committee to be established to assure bond funds are used as outlined in the ballot. The committee will be composed of parents, senior citizens, business and civic leaders. We will keep you apprised of this process and encourage you to visit the District’s website for regular updates: www.cnusd.k12.ca.us.

The passage of this bond measure creates far-reaching, positive educational opportunities for our students today and for generations to come. As a school district, we will roll up our sleeves and go about the work we have always done — to create hope, opportunity, and a better future for all students.
