Subject: 11.7% Tax increase - School Bond


Lone Wolf Ok
School has 88 enrolled (Pre-K to 12)

2 x vehicles (mini van and suburban 2006 models)
2 x Bathrooms on Elementary side remodel
Some 'window unit' Ac updates
Getting Water back to the Science Room (10 yrs ago - entire school was re-plumbed.
Other 'misc' repairs

Election is Mar 4 --

Edit to add some details

I did attempt to run for school board - I was beat by a 'veteran'

We lost 'ag' and home-ec along with music over the course of last 10 years.

We currently pay 36.6 mills on 'school dist gen' and 5.23 mills on School Dist Bldg

-- of the 88 -- my guess is over 1/2 come from neighboring school district (either kid have behavior issues or they enjoy our 4 day school week)

School got new bus (48 passenger) with COVID funds - they use it for everything - they also have a one-ton bus - with A/C (Front and back) ---
Basketball is attempting to be a sport again - have enough kids to be on the floor - but no substitutes.
Tennis has been started on year 3 - about 10 participate
Archery is supposedly being attempted - $$ have been transferred from old class accounts to archery - have heard nothing publicly
They brought in outside firm to 'evaluate' -- recommendation was do pre-K through 8 -- sell off property not used (Old Kindergarten building 1965) - Annex (was old lunchroom in my day, new building constructed for computer/English/Math - now all those back in main building along with Kindergarten)
