From North Wasco County School District:

The Dalles High School Building Tours

North Wasco County School District will be offering drop-in tours of The Dalles High School on Thursday, September 14th from 4-7 p.m., giving voters an inside look at the building.

Tours will occur approximately every half an hour with the first beginning at 4:30 pm and the last taking place at 6:30 pm.  The community is welcome to come in and check out our facility and ask questions regarding the November High School Replacement Bond. 

The bond package, totaling $140 million, was initially projected to require homeowners to pay $3.12 per $1,000 of assessed value of their property. However, a recent analysis conducted by the Piper Sandler Public Finance Team reveals a reduction in the bond rate, now estimated at $2.73 per $1,000.
More information about the school bond can be found here.
