If approved by voters on Nov. 4, the proposed operating levy would:
💲 Stabilize our budget and protect classroom learning.
👨‍🎓 Maintain smaller class sizes, helping students get the attention they need.
🏫 Attract and retain staff, including classroom teachers, paraprofessionals and counselors.
🏈 Continue strong extracurriculars.

Our district has faced deep budget cuts over the past two years. That's why we're proposing an operating levy, to help fund day-to-day costs such as academic programs, teacher and staff salaries, and routine maintenance.

The renovations are really coming together! 🤩
Pictured: FACS room, junior high bathrooms, weight room, cardio room, band, choir, sport storage cubby, and the Woock Gym.
Again, thank you to all who are making this possible!

#RangerNation #GoCIGo

Edit: We want to clarify that the funding for our current building updates and renovations was made possible by the passing of a previous building (bond) referendum. These funds are designated specifically for construction, updates, and renovations.

An operating levy is completely different—it covers day-to-day school operating costs such as staffing, classroom supplies, athletic programs and extracurricular programs. Funds from a building bond referendum cannot be used for operating expenses.

We appreciate our community’s support in helping us maintain safe, modern, and effective learning spaces for our students!

This November, our district will ask voters to consider an operating levy referendum. If approved, the Ranger Nation Strong Foundation plan would provide $1.5 million annually for ten years to stabilize the budget and protect quality education for our students.
