Letter: Raymond levy renewal deserves support

Published 2:11 pm Friday, January 19, 2024

Raymond School District Voters,

It is again time to take pride in supporting our Raymond students by voting yes on the upcoming levy ballot. The quality of our schools impacts the success of our students. We trust the Raymond School District administration and staff to prioritize a strong education for all students. Along with various educational programs, extracurricular activities and maintenance are also partially funded by this levy. Sports, music and theater, as well as safe buildings, are also important components of the levy.

We want RHS students to experience successful lives during and after attending Raymond schools. Whether the future brings attendance at a trade school, a college or university, or joining the workforce upon graduating, each student is worthy of your support.

M & O levies are a necessary part for school funding. We are fortunate that the levy rate will go down to $1.97/$1,000 of assessed value of your home from the current rate of $2.37/$1,000. Our community has a history of supporting our Raymond students. A quality education can provide a pathway to success. Please support our Raymond students, staff and programs by voting yes.

Please join us in voting for the Raymond school levy.

VICKI and CHRIS HALPIN

Raymond
