Marysville School District is already preparing for the 2027 levy
EVERETT — Well before the Marysville School District’s current operations levy expires in 2027, school officials have already begun a four-phase plan to build trust and educate voters.
The district’s Educational Programs and Operations levy funds athletics, safety personnel, nursing services, counselors, supervisory staff and maintaining smaller class sizes, according to interim Superintendent Deborah Rumbaugh. The district anticipates Marysville voters will be asked to renew the levy when it expires.
The tax rate and total funding generated by the 2027 levy will be determined in 2026 after the school board studies current and projected costs, Rumbaugh said in an email.
“A key part of our success is our ability to utilize local dollars (levies) to support programs and positions that are underfunded or not funded by the state,” said Marysville School Board member Craig Hereth in an email. “School districts are unable to function without the support of local levies.”
