What happened

The posted amended 2026–27 budget lists a $2,827,823 school levy, up $888,264, or about 45.8%, from the prior year.

Why it matters to families

The increase affects the school share of local property taxes. Individual bills also depend on property values and other taxing jurisdictions. The district reported that voters approved recurring operating revenue-limit authority in April.

The evidence

The October 28 amended levy summary lists $1,939,559 for the prior year and $2,827,823 for 2026–27. Compared with the original 2026–27 levy, the amendment increases it $24,212, or about 0.86%. October meeting minutes were not located.
