What Am I Voting On?
Voters will be asked to decide on the following items (click the links in the list below to learn more):
- A $32,315,539 budget for the 2020-21 school year
- Purchase of five (5) buses
- Durham building donation (FAQ updated June 9, 2020)

The above information, as well as a breakdown of revenues and expenses, is included in the Education Matters: Budget Newsletter 2020-21 (PDF), which will be mailed directly to district residents. (Note: The newsletter incorrectly states that funds were budgeted to continue the full-day pre-kindergarten program. That money is not in the current budget nor is it in the 2020-21 budget.)
