• In June of 2024, the Millbrae Elementary School District Board of Trustees authorized, by Resolution, a school bond election to be held on November 5, 2024.

    Thank you to our voters for passing "Measure J"!

    Measure J intends to improve all local elementary/middle schools by upgrading math, reading and writing classrooms; updating science, technology, and engineering labs; repairing leaking roofs; providing teachers with instructional tools to prepare students for future success and rebuilding aging school facilities.

    KEY FINDINGS

    Millbrae School District is fully committed to its longstanding tradition of delivering an excellent education for local students. Our local schools are award winning and serve over 2,100 students from TK-8th grade with a mission of providing each student a strong academic foundation.

    The District conducted a Facilities Master Plan to capture the current state of school facilities and provide a list of improvements needed at each school site. While our students continue to succeed, the plan identifies a specific list of repairs and upgrades needed across all Millbrae schools. Updates and repairs to heating and ventilation systems and aging roofs are needed to make these systems efficient, sustainable and keep our children safe and healthy.

    The Board recognizes in the past, the State funded 40 percent of school construction, but now leaves this entire responsibility to local communities. Currently, there are no resources available to improve or update Millbrae elementary and middle schools. Additional funding would allow the District to repair aging schools and ensure student safety.

    Moneys raised under this Measure shall be authorized to be used only for the following purposes in accordance with priorities established by the Board and to the extent of available funds:

    • Make classroom and school repairs to help protect the quality of academic instruction in core subjects like math, science, reading and writing
    • Update science, technology, engineering and math labs at every school
    • Repair and replace leaking roofs
    • Provide teachers with instructional tools to prepare students for high school and college
    • Update classroom computers and technology
    • Rebuild the outdated, windowless Lomita Park Elementary School to ensure all students have a safe and up-to-date learning environment
