The board also approved the 2025-2026 proposed tax rate of .97160. This includes the maintenance tax of .72160 and the school debt service tax approved by local voters of .25000. This is a slight decrease from last year’s tax rate of .97526.

The board took no action on approving the Construction Manager at Risk proposals. They hope to recommend a Construction Manager at Risk at the Sept. 8 board meeting.

“We had nine proposals and narrowed it down to four that we interviewed,” Benedict said. “We want to look further into these proposals. It is a great situation to be in when we have some great candidates that we feel strongly about.”
