Prop. 1
EP&O Levy
The EP&O Levy renewal funds essential school staff and programs that the state does not fully pay for—like school nurses, counselors, social workers, teacher-librarians, special education services, and student safety. NSD has consistently performed with less than the maximum rate allowed by the state. The renewal levy ensures that the school district can keep up with rising costs and provide the same quality education that our children deserve.
Prop. 2
Bond
The bond funds major school construction and upgrades. Completing phase 2 of projects at Inglemoor and Leota, replacing Shelton View, expanding and renovating Kokanee, and improving seismic safety, and building systems across the district. The bond also provides funds for maintaining and improving HVAC systems, roofing, lighting, electrical, elevator, and small works projects completed at schools that need it most. Every student deserves a warm, safe and healthy educational environment to learn.
Prop. 3
Tech Levy
It’s our responsibility to ensure that our children are prepared for the ever-evolving World. The Technology & Capital Projects Levy renewal keeps a 1:1 device for every student, funds electronic curriculum and classroom tech, and supports tech help and training for students, families, and staff.
