What's at Stake

Measure 14-61 is an important local school funding measure that will be on the May 15th election ballot. Voting YES on the Local Option Operating Levy will help maintain:

  • A full school year
  • Athletic programs
  • Music, Theater, and Arts programs
  • Electives and co-curricular activities including band, choir, agriculture, engineering, and robotics
  • Career-technical and Advanced Placement courses
  • Community Education programs
  • An average 23% Oregon state match of Local Option funds for our District, approximately $560,000 per year

Passage is critical to avoid cutting school days and academic programs like so many other school districts around the state have been forced to do. The levy provides an important supplement to fluctuating and inadequate state funding. Renewing the Local Option Levy will NOT increase the tax rate approved in 2012.
