Measure N to build ecARTS PAC

I am Kevin Glaser, President of ecARTS, Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to building a state-of-the-art performing arts center and gallery on the campus of El Camino High School that will serve the entire San JuanUnified School District and Sacramento community.
 
The SJUSD Board of Education unanimously approved Measure N for this November's ballot asking voters to authorize $350 million in bonds to support modernization and repair of schools that are now more than 50 years old.
 
WHY ecARTS CARE ABOUT THIS BOND MEASURE:

In addition to modernization and repair, Measure N will provide the necessary funding to build a performing arts center on the campus of El Camino High School that will serve the entire San Juan UnifiedSchool District and the greater Sacramento area. The performing arts center perfectly aligns with Measure N’s guidelines to meet the academic, technological, creative, and career needs of today’s K-12 students. 
 
Thanks to Measure N, future generations of students, staff, administrators, and community groups will have the opportunity to hold public forums, graduations, music and drama performances, lectures, and art exhibitions in a modern facility with state of the art lighting, sound, comfortable seating, and a pleasing environment. A far cry from the gyms, cafeterias and libraries upon which we currently rely.

  1. Safety of school after it is closed is very necessary. There are computers, stationery items and many other things which can be manipulated by people to harm children when they come to school.
