Student safety, academic support, educational programs and operations
Proposition 11 • Election Day: Tuesday, Nov. 3
Over the past two years, the district has made $34 million in budget cuts that resulted in fewer safety staff, less academic support, fewer counselors, fewer job readiness classes, larger class sizes and decreased student activities.
The district is asking voters to consider a new levy this November. If approved, the levy would provide funding for every Battle Ground school. The funds would go toward increasing student supervision and safety staff, providing more student instruction and lowering class sizes.
