41,090 students
If passed, Measure O would:

Measure O would require a strict accountability system to ensure funds are only spent only on voter-approved projects.
No funds for administrators’ and teachers’ salaries and benefits
A Citizens’ Oversight Committee and annual, independent audits would be required
All funds would support local students and could not be taken by the State
Every school would benefit from bond funds
The cost to property owners would be $59 per $100,000 of assessed (not market) value annually
