This measure sought to add to the current school levy by a rate of $.65 per $100 assessed property value for a continuing period of time in order to further pay for current expenses in the school district area.[4] School officials noted that if the levy had not approved, a school would be closed, high school bus services would be canceled and classes would get larger. Even though the measure was approved, cuts will still need to be made in the district but they will be less drastic.[5]
