The district has worked carefully to ensure the proposed referendum will provide long-term value to students, staff, and residents.
1️⃣ If the operating levy is approved: A home with a median value of $250,000 in the district would see a property tax increase of $18.91 per month starting in 2026.
2️⃣ If the capital projects levy is approved: It would add a monthly tax increase of $4.83 per month, starting in 2026, for a total of $23.74 per month if both questions are approved.
