Baldwin County Schools Construction Timeline

In 2015, voters shot down a $350 million school construction program leaving the fast-growing district with few answers on how to address a building program. At the time, the district had over 130 portable classrooms to accommodate the rapid growth. Eight years later, a Pay As You Go program financed largely by a penny sales tax, has led to more than $340 million in new school projects without any long-term financing. There are now only 10 portables.
