OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Voters in two Oklahoma City metro-area school districts have approved major school bond issues.

Voters in Edmond on Tuesday approved a $36.1 million bond issue to build new classrooms at seven schools, improve athletic facilities at all secondary schools and allow the purchase of new buses. The project includes a $6.6 million renovation of Memorial High School.

And voters in the Putnam City School District passed an $80.6 million bond proposal to pay for 100 construction projects across the northwest Oklahoma City district.
