Caldwell School District seeks $5.8 million levy to cover budget shortfall
What happened
The Caldwell School District is asking voters to approve a $5.8 million supplemental levy this November to offset a current shortfall in its general fund budget. The need for the levy arose after the district's new chief executive officer, Scot Montoya, identified critical funding gaps. The district relies on funds from a previous levy, which expires on June 30, 2027, to cover basic operational needs.
