Vote YES for Central Valley kids
The replacement EP&O levy keeps paying for the teachers, nurses, sports, arts and safety our schools count on, at the same $2.50 rate we pay today.
Why vote yes
It keeps what already works
Central Valley's current levy runs out at the end of 2027. This vote replaces it so the programs it pays for don't stop.
$2.50
Same rate as today
Today's rate is $2.50 per $1,000 of assessed value. The replacement levy is estimated at a maximum of $2.50 in all three years, 2028 through 2030.
16%
Fills the state’s gap
About 16% of CVSD's yearly costs fall above what the state funding model pays for. State and federal money doesn't cover it. The levy does.
50+
Years of community support
