Voters asked to approve an $8.49 million school levy, with $3.9 million for debt
What happened
The September 21 annual meeting agenda asked electors to approve three levies for 2026-27: $4,236,557 for operating costs, $3,923,225 to pay existing building debt, and $334,000 for community programs such as the pool, the Engler Center and crossing guards. Together they total $8,493,782.
Why it matters to families
About 46 cents of every levy dollar pays off past construction debt rather than classroom costs. The October 19 agenda lists approval of an amended budget to match the certified levy.
The evidence
The agenda lists Resolutions A, B and C with the three dollar amounts. The vote result and the prior-year levy are not in the collected documents.
