Board advertises intent to increase two levies to cover tuition and transportation needs

Whitehall School District Board of Trustees · March 4, 2026

Summary

Administrators presented and the board approved advertising resolutions forecasting a $25,000 elementary tuition-fund increase (2.83 mills) and a $35,000 high-school transportation increase (2.61 mills); the board emphasized final vote will occur in August when finances are finalized.

Administrators presented required public notices forecasting potential levy increases for the district and trustees voted to advertise the resolutions as part of the statutory March process.

The elementary notice forecasts a $25,000 increase to the tuition fund (2.83 mills), which the superintendent said would support special-education para support and the addition of at least one para position; the estimated impact on a $100,000 home was presented as $2.15 per year. For the high-school district, staff forecast a $35,000 transportation increase (2.61 mills) to reflect route allocations and anticipated contractor increases; the stated impact on a $100,000 home in that district was $1.99 per year. Administrators reiterated the board is only advertising intent in March and will finalize any levies in August when actual financial numbers are available.

Trustees approved both notices by motion and voice vote. The board recorded the projected mill changes and asked staff to refine particulars for the formal August action.
