Map Out the School Bond

Published: Thursday, July 24, 2008 3:00 PM PDT



Matt Spathas, a proponent of San Diego Unified's new facilities bond, has unveiled a nifty new mapping tool that lets users find what repairs are needed at individual schools, and what the new bond would provide them.

Spathas is a member of Education and Children First, a committee not run by the school district that will actively promote the bond. An external committee exists because California public employees and consultants are prohibited from campaigning with the help of state funds.

Only a few schools are visible now, but Spathas told the school board that the map should be complete next week. Click Pacific Beach Middle School as an example of what the map will eventually show for all San Diego Unified schools.
