🐾Kimball Area Schools is asking residents to consider a $661,605 capital projects levy to provide the funding needed to keep our schools safe, modern and competitive. If approved by voters this November, the levy would cover the costs of our technology needs, freeing up general education dollars to preserve the educational experience families value.
Our technology-related costs are fixed costs that have to be paid and are currently drawing funds away from our regular budget. By moving these dollars to a dedicated levy, we can free up general education dollars to preserve the educational experience families value.
