What happened

At the September 21 annual meeting, electors set the levy at $8,996,232: $6,863,370 for operations, $284,999 for non-referendum debt, $1,647,863 for referendum debt and $200,000 for community service. The final levy and budget adjustments were on the October 19 agenda.

Why it matters to families

This is the tax amount property owners will be asked to pay for schools. Nearly one-fifth of it repays voter-approved building debt.

The evidence

September 21, 2026 annual meeting minutes record Resolution D. The October 19, 2026 agenda lists setting the 2026-27 levy; October minutes were not posted when collected.
