Oakwood Schools Levy

Our Schools. Our Investment. Our Future.

For nearly 40 years, Oakwood voters have supported the Permanent Improvement Levy. The 2026 renewal continues that investment at the existing 1.8-mill tax rate — with no additional revenue.

PROTECTING WHAT OUR COMMUNITY BUILT TOGETHER

Oakwood Schools have a long history of excellence… and maintaining that excellence means taking care of the buildings, technology and infrastructure that support our students every day.

This is not a new tax. The renewal will not increase property tax revenue for the district.On November 3, 2026, Oakwood voters will consider a renewal of the district’s existing 1.8-mill Permanent Improvement Levy. Oakwood voters have approved and renewed this levy for nearly 40 years, and it provides dedicated funding for long-term improvements to our schools.

THE INVESTMENT

The 1.8-mill Permanent Improvement Levy will generate approximately $550,900 annually for Oakwood Schools.The levy currently operates on a five-year renewal cycle and will expire in 2027. The proposal on the November 3 ballot would make the levy continuing, meaning it won’t have to go back on the ballot every five years.The tax revenue won’t change. It will remain approximately $35 per year for every $100,000 of county auditor-assessed property value.

For homeowners, this equates to just under $35 annually per 100,000 of appraised home value.

Please consider donating.

The 2026 Permanent Improvement Levy renewal maintains the existing 1.8-mill tax rate while providing a dependable source of funding for the long-term care of our schools.
