Jeffco Builds
Thank You, Jeffco Voters!
Jeffco Builds is Jeffco Public Schools’ Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Jeffco Builds uses bond revenue from ballot measures to fund essential construction projects that improve the school experience for staff and students.
In 2018, voters approved ballot measure 5B, providing $567 million for school construction projects across the district.
Financial Oversight & Stewardship
In 2010, the Board of Education established the Capital Asset Advisory Committee (CAAC). The Committee was formed in accordance with Policies EL-8 and FB, which focus on facility condition and future planning. The Committee monitors the Capital Improvement Program and future bond work.
