ADRIAN \u2014 Adrian Public Schools has decided that the district will no longer consider placing the Community Recreation Facility Bond proposal on the November 2025 ballot. Instead, the district is now exploring a May 2026 date, pending approval by the Board of Education.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his report to the school board at its July 28 meeting, Superintendent Nate Parker said that the agenda item to approve a November ballot proposal for the facility had been removed due to the recent announcement that community partner Siena Heights University will close at the end of the 2025-2026 school year.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThroughout this process over the last 18 months, we have worked closely with and listened to our community regarding this project,” Parker said. “We still believe that building this facility is the right thing to do for our students and the community; however, the closing of Siena Heights University requires further analysis and time for processing for our community and our district as we consider building a community recreation facility.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parker noted in his report that considering a May proposal rather than November will give the district and community additional time to determine how the closing of the university will affect the planning and scope of this facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
