The county wide 1% sales tax has helped our school district with many needed improvements. The funds raised through this sales tax can only be used for building, maintenance and improvements. The money cannot be transferred to the general education fund and cannot be used to support the programs the board recently voted to cut. Below you will find a list of what the 1% sales tax has provided thus far for our district.
