Residents urged to show support for school at board meeting

The Clark County School District School Board will decide if Boulder City High School receives funding for new classrooms in its Oct. 9 meeting, which will be held at 2832 E. Flamingo Road in Las Vegas.

The meeting, which begins at 4 p.m., will discuss the recent recommendation by the District’s Bond Oversight Committee to give the high school about $16.4 million to replace classrooms that have been in the school since 1949.

City Councilman Cam Walker, a lead proponent for the funding, encouraged residents to show their support for the overdue funding. In a letter posted on the city’s website, Walker encouraged people to show their support at the meeting and to “let their voices be heard.”
