A big THANK YOU to the communities of Wickenburg, Sun City Festival and Festival Foothills for showing their continued support of our children and schools by the successful passing of the Manintenance & Operations Override.
WUSD Override Renewal on November 2018 Ballot
Renewal of the Maintenance and Operations Override will be on the November 2018 Ballot. The override is renewed every 5 years and thanks to our supportive taxpayers, has been continuously in place for 23 years. There are 4 main points to the override:
This is not a new tax. It is a renewal.
The current tax rate will not increase.
Bond money cannot be used for Maintenance & Operations needs. Per legislation.
In WUSD, override funds are used for teacher and support staff salaries and benefits.
The 2 minute video below will give you more details on an override, it’s meaning and effect on the district and taxpayer.
#RedforEd Campaign The override pays for positions; the #REdforEd campaign is for increases in the salaries of existing positions.
