| September Financial Report & real estate tax deep dive The September Financial Report was presented at the Board of Education meeting last week. Treasurer/CFO, Mr. Siloy, also provided a video presentation to summarize the monthly report. View the report and presentation at the links below. In case you missed it, last week the district shared episode 3 of Green Bear Finance: Real Estate Tax Deep Dive. We hope this helps educate our community members on the relationship between valuation changes, taxes, and school revenue. |
