Cimarron Public Schools 2025 Bond - Vote on May 13

Where Success Begins

We're not asking for fancy - we're taking care of what's ours. This bond focuses on practical updates to buildings that have served our community for generations.

While those spaces were built to last, time has taken its toll. What worked back then doesn't always hold up today. Small improvements - like secure entrances, working HVAC, reliable equipment and upgrading technology in the classroom - can go a long way in keeping our schools safe, functional and ready for learning.

This isn't about changing who we are. It's about continuing the care and commitment Cimarron has always had for its students.

Quietly, humbly, and with heart - just like this community always has.
