Throughout this past school year I communicated a number of times about the importance of the state biennial budget development process that was taking place throughout the winter and spring months. The budget has recently been finalized and does indeed have major impacts on schools both locally and across the state. In this article I will focus on one major change that has significant impacts on our local school district budget and property taxes. For quite some time, the Ellsworth Community School District has ranked as one of the lowest districts in the state when it comes to “revenue limit dollars per student”. Basically, this means we have less money per student to spend when compared to many districts.. This has been a primary driver of our need to ask the public for additional funds through Operational Referenda. The new state budget does alleviate this issue somewhat by raising the floor for how many dollars we will have available to fund our local schools. This is good news for us and in the long run decreases the amount of funds we will need to seek through Operational Referenda. Still, we must keep in mind that our district will simply be at the minimum level available so this does not completely eliminate our need for future Operational Referenda. The new funds available do however come at a cost to the local taxpayer. This is due the new state budget raising our local revenue limit authority (budget) while not adequately offsetting the state’s share of our local educational costs through state equalized aid. Due to this, it is currently projected that our local taxpayers will see an increase in property taxes by $45 per $100,000 in home value. Obviously, a local tax increase of this type is never popular. As stated, in the long run, it will assist us in reducing the amount of money needed through Operational Referenda and it will allow the district to be more adequately funded to provide for a variety of needs. It also comes at a time in which the district has seen stable or declining levies and mill rates for the past 6 years. In fact, the 2022-2023 school year saw the lowest mill rate on record back to 1984 for our district’s residents and the projected tax levy for the 2023-2024 school year is still lower than the 2016-2017 school year following the approval of the construction of the Ellsworth Elementary School. As we enter into our next school year and our current investigation of a possible facility referendum in April 2024, I feel it is important for residents to have this information as an ingredient in any discussion regarding long-term needs. What I have outlined above is a direct result of the new state biennial budget for our local schools and demonstrates the importance of the state-level political process when it comes to the impacts on our local school operations and our local communities.

The Ellsworth Community School District will be conducting a survey of residents this fall regarding a number of facility upgrades for a possible April, 2024 facility referendum. This survey will provide decision-makers with valuable information about our resident’s interest in addressing a number of facility needs and upgrades in various areas. Projects included in the survey will include the following areas: Middle School - Funding would provide for various life cycle needs of this facility along with light remodeling to locker bay and Career and Technical Education areas. Examples of life cycle needs include new flooring, windows, doors, HVAC, parking lots, etc as this facility is nearing 30 years of age. Senior High School - Funding would provide for various life cycle needs very similar to the middle school while also providing for modernization and expansion of the current Career and Technical Education areas along with new fitness areas which will include a fitness facility for both school and public use. Exterior Physical Education and Athletic Area Upgrades - Upgrades to the existing exterior physical education and athletic areas are being proposed to provide for expanded and more reliable areas for phy ed classes, school sports programs, and community recreation programs. Football/track facility upgrades being proposed include an artificial turf field, improved track and field areas, new lighting, new bleachers, etc. There is also an artificial baseball/softball field that is being proposed on the current field space south of the middle school to provide for a quality space to meet the needs of school baseball and softball programs. Additional upgrades to other field spaces are also being proposed to provide for high quality spaces that better serve program needs. Childcare Facility - The addition of a childcare facility onto the Ellsworth Elementary School is also being researched to address the dramatic shortages of childcare in our community. This facility would be able to serve about 55 infants to age 3 children. The above projects are the result of the most recent facility study completed this past winter and spring to best identify our most pressing maintenance needs while also visioning how to best provide for quality school and community programs now and into the future. Over the coming months, much more information will be presented to the community to best inform all residents about the proposed projects. The survey is presently targeted to be available to all residents in October. Each household will receive the opportunity to complete a survey in written form or online.

📢 Attention parents! We know it's only mid-July, and we don't want to rush summer, but we've been getting inquiries about the school supply lists. So, we wanted to be proactive and get them out to you right away. EES: https://5il.co/1a9n9 EMS: https://5il.co/vatd EHS: There is no supply list for EHS students. Each teacher will go over the needs of the class at the beginning of each quarter. Standard items like headphones, notebooks, folders, and pencils will be needed.
