La Center schools rely on funding from a number of sources beyond what the state covers, especially local levies. Proposition 6 represents a renewal of the district’s Educational Programs and Operations (EP&O) Levy, which would provide approximately 10% of the district’s basic operations budget.
Proposition 6 – passed originally by the La Center School Board in the form of a resolution – would renew the existing levy at its current rate of $1.50 per $1,000 in assessed property value for another three years. This means that the owner of a median-priced $650,000 home can expect to continue paying approximately $975 annually.
The levy funds programs in arts, athletics, advanced coursework, and special needs. It also covers expenses such as food services, transportation, student safety, technology, nurse and teacher salaries, and maintenance.
Our students deserve to learn in safe, well-resourced, and modern environments that can prepare them for a successful future. Vote Yes on La Center School District Proposition 6 in order to fully equip our schools to offer a high-quality education for all.
