The Board of Education took the final step to place a 5.8 mill operating levy on the November 2010 ballot at their July 8, 2010 meeting. The term of this levy is for a five-year period.
The District has worked aggressively to cut costs by implementing reductions in staff, programs, and services over the past two years and will continue to do so. However, the approximate $3 million annual savings generated by these cuts is not enough to eliminate the need for additional operating funds. The District has not received an increase in operating funds for the past six years. The last time a new levy was approved by voters was in August 2004
