Local Levy Dollars Are Essential to Our Students' Educational Success.

• Local levy funds are used to pay the salaries and benefits of learning support staff, the para-educators who provide invaluable support for our students and teachers in the classroom.
• The levy pays the bus driver costs over and above daily to and from school runs, like those for for extracurricular sports and other after-school activities.
• It pays the salaries and benefits of a part-time school nurse, a school counselor, a part-time tech support staff person, office support staff, nutrition services and maintenance staff, all of whom contribute to helping our students succeed and keeping our school running smoothly.  
• Levy dollars are used to pay for technology costs state funding doesn’t cover, student breakfast and lunch costs, and utility costs not covered by the state.
• It provides essential local support for programs that motivate many of our students to stay in school and work hard, like athletics and career and technical education (previously called vocational education).
