Q: All California schools are having the same funding problems. What makes you so different?
A: Two things make Sierra Unified different from most other districts:
1) Sierra is a small, rural district covering a large geographical area--translates to large transportation costs
2) Sierra has been paying on a large facility debt from its general fund. Normally, construction is funded through a bond. When you look at the total cost, including interest on the loan, eighty percent of the construction costs have been made "out of hide". This bond would cover the remaining 20%.
