District 88 invites you to serve on a Citizens Task Force composed of parents and non-parents, business and civic leaders, educators, and other community stakeholders.
The Task Force will play an important role in evaluating a funding proposal that could appear on the November 2026 ballot to address facility improvements at Addison Trail and Willowbrook high schools, including safety and security upgrades, addressing aging infrastructure, ADA accessibility and improvements to Career & Technical Education (CTE) spaces. The potential proposal would fund these essential updates at both facilities without a net tax rate increase.
The Task Force will meet twice to gather information, ask questions, provide feedback and help shape a proposal to share with the broader community. Meeting details are listed below.
At this stage, no final decisions have been made regarding the possible funding proposal. District 88 is committed to developing and implementing a process that enables local taxpayers to take a leading role in the planning effort. Thank you for your consideration and for supporting our schools and community.
