What happened

The board was asked to approve Resolution 2027-03, which commits certain Mill Levy Override (MLO) money to teacher compensation, but only if voters approve the 2026 bond.

Why it matters to families

The override is a local tax already in place. This would point part of it at teacher pay, which the district links to hiring and keeping teachers.

The evidence

The agenda says the resolution covers future use of MLO revenue contingent on voter approval of the 2026 bond. Dollar amounts are in an attachment that was not collected.
