A five-year strategic plan, developed with feedback and input from thousands of stakeholders, is the driving force behind the construction and renovation projects currently underway. Through the strategic planning process, several district priorities emerged, including expansion of early childhood education, a comprehensive assessment of K-12 school capacity and configuration, and enhanced career and technical training opportunities. These priorities played a pivotal role in the unanimous decision of the Board of Education to authorize a bond election.

Thanks to support from the school community, a $145 million bond election successfully passed in April 2022, allowing Auburn-Washburn to embark on a series of capital improvement projects to enhance the educational experience. The district employed a phased construction approach, beginning in the summer of 2023. Eventually, every building in the district will receive substantial upgrades.
