From your School Board
October 2019 2019-2020 Howard-Suamico School District Budget During our annual meeting last month, community members received a detailed review of the school district’s 2019-2020 budget and voted to adopt it as presented. During the meeting on October 21, the Board of Education approved a total tax levy of $28,248,522, which supports a district budget of $87,410,185 – a decrease of 2.17% as compared to the previous year. This levy will result in the school’s portion of our property taxes remaining stable at $9.19; significantly below the state’s average levy. This budget, just as in year’s past, establishes that we continue to value innovation, investing in our staff, driving academic performance for every student. Board members have engaged in continuous legislative advocacy efforts, specifically pertaining to the State’s biennium budget, which positively impacted the students of the Howard-Suamico School District. The low revenue ceiling increase - a main focus of the Board’s advocacy efforts - especially for a low-spending district like ours, made a tangible impact. For the first time in over a decade, our District will see a net increase in our overall revenue limit. Our overall revenue limit has increased by just over $2,000,000. This is due to an adjustment to $9,700 per pupil for the lowest spending districts across the State coupled with our District’s first increase in resident students in over 5 years. For more information about the Howard-Suamico School District budget please visit our website at www.hssdschools.org, or for additional information regarding this article, contact school board member Vanessa Moran at (920) 246-3999 or [email protected] If you have any questions for the Board of Education, please reach out to your Board member located in this article.
