Battle Ground Public Schools is running a replacement education and operations levy on the April 22 special election ballot. Local levy funding makes up the difference between state funding and the real-world cost to educate students. For instance, at our primary schools the levy funds:
Safety and security
Special education
Technology support staff
Custodial services
Maintenance
Grounds
Multilingual support
Curriculum
Busing
Mental health support
Centralized support, including health/nursing
The replacement levy would allow the district to continue current service levels beyond 2025, when the existing education and operations levy expires. Please take the time to look over our levy information page, and consider attending one of two upcoming public forums to learn more about the levy and ask questions of district leadership. The first of those meetings will be on Tuesday, April 8, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at the Lewisville campus (406 NW 5th Ave., Battle Ground). Childcare and light refreshments will be provided.
