Levies are for learning
Levies support areas directly tied to student learning, achievement, health and safety, sports, and school activities.
Lower tax rate
The proposed levy is approximately $1.67 per thousand of an assessed home value and is 83 cents less per thousand than the expiring measure.

What does the levy fund?
How Does This Levy Support Students?
This levy enables the District to support vital educational programs and operations for students, including teaching, school supplies, technology, athletics, building maintenance, transportation, and other educational needs. The educational programs and operations this levy helps fund are outlined below.
After two failed attempts to pass a levy last year, this levy is critical to the school district’s operations in support of its students’ learning, physical, and social-emotional health and development.

Teachers + Support Staff
Levy funds provide monetary support where the state falls short of fully funding education. Without this critical funding, class sizes will be higher, and vital teacher and support staff positions would be reduced.
Athletics + Clubs
Athletics and extra-curricular activities such as after-school clubs are an important part of the development of the whole child. Elimination of these programs would have a direct impact on students' overall educational experience.

Curriculum + Supplies
The E, P, & O levy provides necessary funds for curriculum and supplies for teaching and learning. The inability to stay on a continuous adoption cycle of curriculum materials causes the district to fall behind impacting student learning.
Technology + Training
Thanks to voters for their support of previous capital levies for technology, the District has been a leader in providing 1:1 student Chromebooks and state of the art technology for students and staff. Levy funds help to support the continued use of technology in and out of the classroom and to maintain and/or repair current devices.
Without these necessary funds, the district will not be able to fund programs such as athletics and other extracurricular activities for students, and deeper reductions in staff and other programs district-wide will be necessary.

Safety + Transportation
Safety is our top priority in the Marysville School District. Both safety and transportation rely on levy funds to provide for these essential needs for students and schools. Without levy support, these areas also face further reductions.
