Do you have questions about the Jan. 28 bond referendum? Read the FAQs or watch the recording of the virtual forum at mendhamboro.org/vote. Can’t find what you’re looking for? Send us an email: vote@mendhamboroschools.org.

Did you know we do not have a science lab for fifth graders? Students perform labs in a general education classroom without proper stations with equipment like sinks. Question 1 of the bond referendum proposes creating a lab for fifth grade and upgrades to the remaining science labs, so these spaces reflect today’s collaborative learning environments. More about the upgrades at mendhamboro.org/vote.
Alumni that turn 18 by Jan. 28 are eligible to vote in the bond referendum. Away at college? You can still make your voice heard by registering to Vote By Mail. Be sure to postmark your ballot before returning to school. More including how to register, at mendhamboro.org/vote
