Msg from Strasburg C-3 School District: This is a friendly reminder that school is in session on Monday, April 14, 2025. Have a great weekend!
🚨 TOMORROW is Election Day! 🚨
Let’s take a moment to review Proposition K.I.T.S. (Keep It The Same) and what it means for the Strasburg C-3 School District!
✅ What’s on the ballot?
We are asking voters to approve a transfer of $0.6400 from the debt service levy to the operating levy. This shift will allow us to increase teacher salaries to meet the new $40,000 minimum salary mandate required by Senate Bill 727 (passed in 2024).
✅ What does this mean for our school?
By approving this levy transfer, we can:
✔️ Retain quality teachers and remain competitive with other districts
✔️ Prevent staffing and program cuts that could happen if we are forced to raise salaries without the necessary funds
✔️ Continue providing strong educational opportunities for our students
✅ Will my property taxes increase?
No! The total tax levy remains the same. This is simply a reallocation of existing funds—not an increase in taxes.
📢 Rural schools like ours thrive on community support and we appreciate the continued support of the Strasburg C-3 Community!
Reminder, PTO Variety Show Sign Ups are due THIS Friday, April 4th. Students will not be allowed to participate in rehearsals or the show without a signed permission slip. If you need another copy of the Variety Show flyer, please contact the school. If the number of rehearsals is holding you back, please email the PTO at strasburgpto1@gmail.com and we will work with you. Thank you!
Time to celebrate! Strasburg C-3 just got a big boost of help from @caseys and its Cash for Classrooms grant program. We will receive $5,000.00 to help install a new playground slide. We are so excited to expand our playground for student and community use!
