The Cassia Jt. School District Trustees are seeking a renewal of the Supplemental Levy. This is a two year levy which has been continuously approved since 1979. The levy bridges the gap between state funding and the actual cost of operating our schools. This levy is not expanding programs or paying for buildings. It funds programs and supplies such as: Curriculum, Classroom Supplies, Extra-Curricular Activities, and safety initiatives such as school nurses, resource officers, and mental health counseling.

The district is requesting an annual increase of $200,000 to help offset increasing costs from inflation, and to fund additional school resource officers and nurses. The total annual amount will be $2,995,000. See the above Renewal Presentation for a breakdown of the expenditures.

The estimated average annual cost to the taxpayer on the proposed levy is a tax of $73.18 per $100,000 of taxable assessed value, per year, based on current conditions. However, the district has received ongoing property tax relief payments from the state that have offset the entirety of this cost.
