By passing both the Operating and Capital Referendum last spring, you have shown that you value the education of our children. We are so grateful for your support. We promise transparency and will work hard to preserve your trust.
During our referendum meetings last winter, we made a couple of promises. We promised that if the community passed both the operating and capital referendum, the mill rate increase would be a maximum of $14 per year per $100,000 of property value. For example, if a community member owned a home valued at $200,000, the total school tax increase would be $28 per year. We are happy to report that the increase will only be $4 per year on $100,000 of property value! The calculation was based on a number of factors, including enrollment, district’s property value, state aid, etc. But in the end, Nekoosa won! We are so fortunate to have such a supportive community and are so happy that it is costing less than we estimated!
We also promised transparency. Please click on the links below to see our progress on each of the referendums.
