2 News spoke with some Tulsa Public Schools parents who shared their thoughts on the bond package that could impact their children.
Parents said they love how everything with this bond was laid out for them to see.
"I think all TPS parents can agree that our students really need, um, the ability to have the resources that are required for the good opportunities, um, to become successful adults. And so I will definitely be voting yes on this bond package because I think it can really greatly impact a lot of our, um, elementary students," Marielle Battin said.
Some opponents, including former City Councilor Jayme Fowler, told 2 News they believe change is needed before approving this package.
Another huge city bond going to voters today is the Broken Arrow GO bond. It is worth $415 million and will focus on citywide infrastructure improvements, public facilities, and safety. There are eight propositions headed to the voters this morning, including upgrades to current sports facilities.
