Frequently Asked Questions
Why hasn’t the school district kept up with maintenance of buildings through the years?
• Each mill levied in USD #251 raises a minimal amount of funds. Capital Outlay Funding has been about $150,000 annually. To replace the roof at NHHS would be $750,000 or 5 years of capital outlay levies.
Frequently Asked Questions
If we remodel the current buildings, how long will it take and how will school continue to be held?
• HTK estimates that a remodeling project will take about 2 years. It would be a challenge to keep school in session during this time frame. One of the options would be to conduct school in an alternate location. No alternate locations have been identified.
Frequently Asked Questions
If we remodel, are there any requirements in conjunction with the American Disabilities Act (ADA)?
• Yes. For every $1 spent on remodeling, $.20 must be spent on ADA issues until the building and location are ADA accessible.
Frequently Asked Questions
If a new building is built, has a new location been identified?
• No definite location has been identified. However, HTK has identified several needs for a building site. Adequate water pressure and three-phase electrical service are a must. Natural gas availability would help keep utility costs down.
Frequently Asked Questions
What would happen to the existing buildings if a new K-12 was constructed?
• The committee has not addressed this question at this time. As with everything else, the final decision would be made by the Board of Education.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there information available about the number of USD #251 students attending school in other school districts?
• Yes, information is available for the 2012-2013 school year. 120 North Lyon County students attended school outside the district. The breakdown of where these students attended school is:
Emporia – 67 students (56%)Osage City – 20 students (17%)Mission Valley – 15 students (12%)All others – 18 students (15%)
OPTIONS PROS REMODEL PRO:-Keep elementary schools in Reading & Americus-Less building costs NEW K-12 PRO:-All students in one location. Families no longer have students in Reading, Americus & NHHS.-Better able to manage elementary class sizes so teachers & students will have more comparable teaching & learning experience.-Able to manage jr. high & high school courses better to have more courses available for these two levels.-Consolidation savings could be used for introducing new programs/classes.

*The 1.63 mill reduction is a result of possible reduction in utilities and maintenance of buildings. No reduction has been made to capital outlay. Capital outlay is currently used to purchase school buses and building maintenance. There would be no changes in bus routes with this option. If there were remaining funds after bus purchases, then capital outlay funds could be accumulated for future maintenance needs. This cost projection allows for no other changes to programs, etc.

* The possible annual savings of $919,400 converts to 12.949 mills ($71,000 per mill). The school board would have three options for this savings: 1) Early payoff of the bonds used to build the new building; 2) Lower capital outlay levy and/or the LOB levy; and 3) Use the extra funds to add new programs, increase salaries, put aside for future maintenance, etc. This illustration has designated a reduction of 7 mills. Also, the capital outlay levy has been reduced 2 mills to 4.1 mills (fewer buses needed). In this scenario the possible remaining 3.949 mills (app. $280,000 annually) could be used to reduce debt, new programs, or reduce the mill levy further.
