Hermitage School District Seeks Second Tax Levy Increase
What happened
The Hermitage school district is asking voters for a second time to approve a 50-cent tax levy increase. This measure, which failed in August, is intended to fund the district’s teacher fund. The district notes that the current levy was originally set to meet a state mandate requiring at least a $2.75 levy to receive full state aid.

Why it matters
The district states that if the measure fails again, staff and program cuts could become unavoidable, potentially affecting extracurricular activities. The proposed increase would cost less than $8 a month for a standard home and under $14 a month for a local business.
