The ballots for North Wasco County School District 21’s 140 million dollar bond measure to build a new high school in The Dalles should now be in the hands of the voters. D-21 Board Member Jose Aparicio says in his mind, the decision the community will make in regards to whether to move forward in the project should come down to the kids and the investment that is put into them. If passed the $140 million dollar bond would cost the average property owner approximately $2.73 per thousand dollars of assessed property value. The new high school would be built on the site of the current Wahtonka campus.
