Kyrene School District is on its way toward its first pre-K-8 campus after the governing board last week approved $6.2 million to expand the Kyrene Traditional Academy-Sureno Campus in Chandler.
The board’s 4-1 vote came after Superintendent Jan Vesely urged it to begin “designing schools of the future” and reminded it that “in an environment of school choice, Kyrene needs to think forward and not static.”
The district is still a long way and millions of dollars from fully realizing a goal the board began formulating in 2012 and approved in concept nearly two years ago.
