The Anaheim Union High School District Board of Education is hosting a Study Session on Measure K Implementation at 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, January 15, 2026 at the Board Room at 501 N. Crescent Way, Anaheim, 92801. 

This meeting is to brief the Board of Trustees on various aspects of the Measure K implementation, including, but not limited to, project and program updates, budgetary and financial information, as well as projected timelines moving forward. The public is welcome to attend and public comment is available.

AUHSD’s Measure K was the largest school district bond measure in Orange County history. The $496 million dollar bond was approved by voters in November 2024.

School Districts Place Bond Measures on the November Ballot
So far at least nine school districts in Orange County have placed multimillion-dollar bond measures on the Nov. 5, 2024 ballot.

In June 2025, the board appointed a seven member Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee. The next Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee Meeting is on February 23, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. at the District Office. All meetings are open to the public.

You can see a partial list of current projects from the September 23, 2025 Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee Meeting. Other projects have been approved by the School Board since September.
