Why are voters deciding on school funding this November? 🗳️
Because the Permanent School Fund rules are written into the Minnesota State Constitution, updating the funding distribution requires approval from voters statewide.
Here is what you need to know:
1️⃣ It modernizes how funds reach local classrooms.
2️⃣ It requires ZERO tax increases—no property, income, or sales tax changes.
Find out how this helps local education by reviewing the details on our ISD 152 Permanent School Fund Webpage or check the state legislative overview on the Minnesota House Public Information Services Summary.

Have you heard about the Permanent School Fund Constitutional Amendment coming to your ballot this fall? 🎓
This measure asks Minnesota voters whether to update how revenues from the state's existing school trust fund are distributed to local school districts. The best part? It will NOT raise your taxes or cost Minnesotans any extra money. It simply allows local schools to receive a larger portion of earnings generated by existing state assets.
Stay tuned every Tuesday and Thursday as we break down what this means for our schools!
