School property tax levy rises 13%
What happened
In December 2025, the board approved a property tax levy of $585,870 for taxes paid in 2026. That is up $67,715, or 13.07%, from $518,155 the year before. Most of the increase is in the general fund.
Why it matters to families
Local property owners pay this levy, and it helps pay for school operations. The September 2026 preliminary levy for next year is lower ($512,674). The final number will be set in December 2026, and the November referendum could change it.
