Published on Wed, Nov 11, 2009Read More News
Three years, $14.7 million.
That’s the maintenance and operations levy proposal Sequim’s school board directors agreed to put before voters in a special election on Feb. 9, 2010.
Board members unanimously agreed to the plan after about two hours of debate on Tuesday afternoon.
The proposal generates $4.05 million in 2011, $4.9 million in 2012 and $5.78 million in 2013 from local taxpayers to reduce class sizes, pay for curriculum upgrades, purchase supplies and materials, upgrade facilities and restore a number of programs the district has cut recently.
The proposal is now in the hands of Citizens for Sequim Schools, the grass-roots group that promotes passing local school levy proposals.
