District overview

Raytown C-2

How the elected board funds the district and plans for changing enrollment.

Who decides how the district runs?

An elected board sets policy, taxes, budgets, boundaries, and programs

Raytown C-2 is governed by an elected Board of Education. Missouri formula funding and local property taxes support operations, while a separate debt rate pays voter-approved bonds. The board is also adjusting school boundaries as enrollment is projected to decline through 2035.

Tax-supported district

The board set a $6.32 total school tax rate for 2025-26.

Enrollment planning

The board approved boundary changes affecting fewer than 250 students across elementary, middle, and high schools.

Facilities and programs

The plan uses existing buildings and moves a district program into Central Middle School to avoid larger capital costs.

Spending gap

The meeting recordings do not provide total district spending or spending per student on a matching basis.

The approved plan keeps the current K-5, 6-8, and 9-12 grade structure and was designed to limit disruption.
