The Crimson Cliffs Middle school, located in Washington City, has been under construction since summer of 2016 at a cost of $25 million, a price that includes all the school’s amenities, from furniture to lockers. It will be ready for occupancy when the school year begins in August. On the same campus as the middle school is Crimson Cliffs High School, which is set to open in fall 2019.
Coming up in November, the school district will be asking voters to approve a “tax neutral bond” for additional projects. As the school pays off old debt, property tax will decrease, so it only has to tax the amount it needs to pay off old debt. The district is proposing that the bond will allow it to fund $125 million worth of projects without raising taxes.
Among those projects is a career and technical high school inspired by a high school in Houston, Texas. Career and technical high schools are formatted to each student depending on their desired career. St. George News
