With today’s levy update, I am more comfortable that both measures should pass. The ballots returned after 8:00 pm Tuesday for the operations levy have been about 64% yes and for the technology levy about 62% yes. If these trends continue the measures will pass.
Though they are passing, it is a bittersweet victory. Had the law not changed to allow passage at 50% both would fail. It is also difficult to see the percent of yes votes given to almost all other districts exceeding ours. We have much to ponder as we seek additional ways to engage the community in understanding and supporting our efforts to prepare young people for success in post high school learning and work.
