Voters in three Nebraska school districts have approved bond measures, but voters in Grand Island's Northwest Public Schools district defeated a local proposal.

Officials said late Tuesday that more than 81 percent of Northwest's voters rejected the $6.8 million plan.

More than 54 percent of voters in central Nebraska's Ord district approved a $9.8 million issue. The district will renovate a building and add a cafeteria and practice gym.

More than 61 percent of voters in western Nebraska's Paxton district approved an $8.2 million proposal. The district will add five classrooms, renovate a cafeteria and build a practice gym.

Voters in the Superior Public Schools district in south-central Nebraska approved an $8 million proposal for an elementary school.
