Puyallup School District
Depending on where you live, you may have one of the below school district races on your ballot.
Puyallup’s school district thrives when students and staff have the resources, infrastructure, and support they need. Puyallup School District Proposition 1 authorizes a capital levy on excess property taxes in order to restore, improve, and replace long-neglected school infrastructure.
Proposed to address critical maintenance and vital facility improvements, the levy would finance a range of upgrades in building infrastructure, learning technology, school safety, and outdoor learning and security to bring the school district up to code and into better alignment with student needs. Some specific improvements that the levy would target include heating, cooling, lighting, broadband, fire and security systems, disability accommodations, audio/visual classroom equipment, athletic infrastructure, software, and hardware. At a rate of $0.87 per $1,000 of assessed value, the levy would cost the owner of a median-priced $550,000 Puyallup home about $479 a year.
A properly funded school district is a cornerstone of a healthy community, and students, staff, and families of our school district deserve to feel confident that Puyallup offers a quality education in a safe and welcoming environment.
Vote Yes on Puyallup School District Proposition 1.
