District to Adopt Property Tax Hike
📅 November 18, 2026
The school board is voting to adopt a new total tax rate of $1.119199. The district’s own official notice for Item 4 explicitly states, ‘THIS TAX RATE WILL RAISE MORE TAXES FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS THAN LAST YEAR’S TAX RATE,’ directly increasing the burden on local property owners.
Response

PACK THE ROOM: This is the final vote on your property tax bill. Attend the meeting on November 18th and demand the board explain why they are raising more taxes for M&O than last year. Insist on a recorded roll-call vote for Item 4 so every taxpayer knows where each trustee stands.

💰 Impact: Higher Property Taxes
