Tiger Community: On behalf of the Ephrata School District, I want to share my gratitude to everyone who took the time to participate in the 2026 bond election. Your engagement in this process is a demonstration of our care of this community. We are grateful for the conversations we’ve had with members of the community throughout the past few months.

While preliminary results clearly indicate the bond did not reach the required 60% approval, our responsibility to our students and our community remains unchanged. We remain committed to ensuring we support KIDS and their LEARNING in safe and supportive environments.

We recognize the value of the feedback that has been shared during this process. We will take time to reflect on what we heard, continue listening and work to better understand community priorities and concerns. As part of this effort, we plan to reconvene, and likely expand, the Community Facility Study Group to reflect, reassess our facility needs and thoughtfully and transparently discuss next steps.

Thank you for your continued engagement and care for Ephrata Schools. We look forward to continuing this important work together.

TIGER PRIDE TODAY! TIGER PRIDE ALWAYS!
Ken Murray
Superintendent
