School Funding Measures

While the state of Washington provides some funding for K-12 education, it is often not enough to fully support all of the programs and services that schools provide. Local levy funding allows school districts to raise additional funds that can be used to supplement state funding and provide additional resources for students. Local levy funding can be used to support a wide range of programs, technology, and services that help to maintain or improve educational quality. This can include things like hiring additional teachers, providing additional resources for students with special needs, and funding extracurricular activities like sports and music programs. Local levy funding can also be particularly important for school districts that are facing budget shortfalls. When the state or federal funding for education is cut or otherwise reduced, local levy funding can help to ensure that schools are still able to provide high-quality education to their students.
