Issaquah School District 2022 Levy: Development Committee is meeting now

Do you know what Levies fund in our district? See link below - Page 12.

The current Levy will expire on December 31, 2022. A renewal/replacement levy will need to be approved by voters next year to continue to fund the programs and activities that are now in our schools.

Click here for a list of what is funded by our local Issaquah School District levies.

The Levy Development Committee will consider the proposed content, total cost and tax impact of three ballot measures: an Educational Programs and Operations Levy (formerly called the Maintenance and Operations Levy), a Capital (Technology and Critical Repairs) Levy, and a Transportation (Bus) Levy.

Levy Development Committee meetings are open to the public and will be held on various Tuesdays and Thursdays through December 2021 and January 2022 at Issaquah Middle Schools. Open to the public.  Click here for information and details.

Seeking Volunteers
