Victory for Measures Y and Z!
I am elated to announce the overwhelming victory of TUSD School Bond Measures Y and Z. It has been a long journey to achieve this success, with months and months of planning, community meetings, informational forums, and thousands of volunteer hours. The Torrance community rallied together - parents, students, both certificated and classified employees, community members, and all of the city’s elected officials, in order to pass these two bonds. Both bonds passed with tremendous community support; Measure Y passed with 74.05% of the vote, and Measure Z with 71.24% of the vote.
We will continue to provide the community with updates on the progress of both bond measures through our website, www.tusd.org.
Again, I want to thank the over 1,000 volunteers who made phone calls, those who walked their neighborhoods and spoke to their friends and neighbors, and those who made monetary contributions to the campaign so that we could be victorious! This success would not have been possible if the Torrance residents had not recognized our need to upgrade our facilities and voted to pass both bond measures. Thank you to all the Torrance residents who participated in this very important election. We did it thanks to your involvement and dedication!
