The measure is $115 million dollars, according to the district.

 

Superintendent Andrew Rikli said he hopes the community will become partners.

 

"We want to see really big crowds tonight at Papillion-La Vista South High School and Wednesday at Papillion-La Vista High,” Rikli said. “I think the community needs to understand one thing above all else – that this is a draft proposal."
