Kent School District
Depending on where you live, you may have one of the below school district races on your ballot.
The board of the Kent School District has put Proposition No. 1 to the voters to make much-needed facility upgrades. These include districtwide improvements to school access, communications, and alarm systems, energy-efficient lighting, and the replacement of roofs and other key infrastructure.
The bonds would be paid for by an overall levy rate of $3.52 per $1,000 of assessed property value, a decrease from the 2022 rate of $3.81. This number, provided by the school district, covers existing bonds, the new bond, as well as the technology and operating levy. This means the owner of a median $600,000 home could expect to pay about $2,286 per year for all school improvements, technology, safety, and staffing needs.
Our kids deserve to learn in safe, modern facilities that meet the needs of a growing community. Vote yes on Kent School District's Proposition No. 1.
