The Facts Behind School Funding:
Your school taxes are based on the Fair Market Value of your house.
By state law, the Fair Market Value is calculated by the Tax Assessor.
The school district doesn’t assess nor calculate your property value (Fair Market Value).
State funding for new students doesn’t arrive right away - funding for increased student populations is delayed for a year.
The school district uses projected enrollment and digest growth to prepare the annual budget therefore we use historic data to help guide our budget planning.
