This fall, dozens of school districts throughout Southern California are asking voters to approve billions of dollars in bonds to repair and renovate aging campuses.

The size of the bond and the resulting change in property taxes varies from district to district, but these requests all exist in the context of a school facilities funding system that’s failed to meet some schools' needs for decades.

LAist has put together individualized guides to every school bond in Orange County. We talked to school facilities funding experts, and we surveyed districts on their priorities if their measure is successful; whether they have photos of damages; and what else voters should know.

If you want a more general overview, check out our explainer: What is a bond? Why am I always being asked to vote for one?
