We all benefit from strong schools. That’s why it’s essential we come together on May 20 to vote YES on the school district’s replacement Maintenance and Operations (M&O) levy.
We’ve long been proud supporters of our schools, and we’ve had the privilege of watching local students grow into thoughtful, skilled, and driven adults – thanks to the opportunities provided through our school district. From academics to athletics, these programs give students the tools they need to succeed in life and contribute to our community.
This levy isn’t new – it’s a replacement of existing funding. It’s vital to sustaining high-quality instruction, extracurriculars, and essential support services. Without it, we will lose great teachers, sports programs, and the very opportunities that make our schools special.
We trust our school board to manage these funds responsibly. They’ve consistently demonstrated their commitment to transparency and wise financial stewardship. And our school administrators, teachers, and staff go above and beyond for our kids every day. They deserve the resources to keep doing what they do best.
Let’s invest in our kids and our community’s future. Please join us on May 20 and vote YES on the school levy.
