Carol Jankowski said the coordinating committee met multiple times between meetings to get speakers and discussion items set up for the next meeting.

Superintendent Lindsey Hall added that they tried to find a diverse group of people in the community to be a part of the coordinating committee, including those that voted against the referendum.


“There was this health spirit of making sure that group did not all act together as an agreeable body,” Hall said.
