Tahoma Community Acknowledged for Supporting Education Levy

The Tahoma School Board, led by President Michael Wiggins, has thanked the community following the recent Educational Programs & Operations Levy vote. In a letter dated April 25, 2024, Wiggins expressed gratitude to voters in the April 23 election. The levy is currently passing with 55.14% of the vote, with some votes still to be counted.

This levy is important for covering the financial shortfall between state funding and the actual costs of educational and extracurricular programs. The board considers these funds vital for maintaining and improving education quality in the district.

The Tahoma School Board is committed to responsibly managing the community's investment. They aim to wisely handle funds, improve educational quality, and seek spending efficiencies. This approach is part of an ongoing effort, not just a single achievement.

The levy's approval marks the start of a new phase with Dr. Callison as the new superintendent. With the funding secured for the next school year, Dr. Callison plans to enhance student outcomes and build strong community partnerships.
