District Asks For Resident Feedback on Proposed $98.5mm School Bond: Deadline Friday January 9.

What are your thoughts on a proposed $98.5 mm bond for the Scarsdale Schools?

The Scarsdale School District is seeking your feedback by Friday January 9, 2026 and asks you to complete a short survey here:

Here is some background from the district:

The Scarsdale Public Schools has embarked on a planning process for a potential bond referendum in 2026. In anticipation of significant debt service falling off in the 2027-2028 school year, the District has engaged with BBS Architects and Arris Contracting Company to develop a long range capital plan. A Capital Projects Steering Committee (CPSC) formed in March 2025 was charged with presenting a recommendation to the Board of Education a scope of work consistent with the Strategic Plan. That initial recommendation was made on September 15, 2025. Since that time, there have been numerous updates, extensive discussion, and significant feedback from the community that has been incorporated into bond scope. As the scope of work came into sharper focus, more detailed cost estimation also took place. Finally, an updated recommendation was presented by Administration on Monday, December 15th, 2025. The Board is again seeking public input on this current proposed bond work scope and its associated cost that totals $98,537,034.
