Investing in Our Schools, Investing in Our Future
BV Schools is committed to providing a high-quality education in a supportive environment for every student. To help us continue meeting these goals, the district is proposing a mill levy that would create a dedicated funding source—up to $975,000 annually—to preserve and improve our schools for years to come.
What This Means for Our Community
-Support for Staff
By shifting certain building maintenance and infrastructure costs to this dedicated revenue stream, the district can reprioritize more of the general fund to attract and retain the best teachers and staff—ensuring stability and excellence in our classrooms.
-Maintain and Improve Facilities
These funds will help us extend the useful life of our buildings, enhancing safety and efficiency while reducing the need for more costly repairs down the road.
Investment
$14.53 per year—or $1.21 per month—for every $100,000 in home value
For a home valued at $650,000 (the district average), that's approximately $94 per year, or $7.87 per month
For commercial properties, the cost is $278.17 per year—about $23.18 per month—for every $500,000 in value
