All of the bond projects outlined in the scope of the 2011 bond have been completed. The voter-approved bond did not increase the tax rate in Fraser Public Schools.

The District has been fiscally responsible, and since 2011 the total debt has been reduced by approximately $18.8 million. In 2015, the District also completed a refunding transaction, which resulted in a reduction of the total debt service payments over the following 16 years by more than $6.77 million dollars.
