Our first graders had a wonderful time attending the live play Anastasia. The students loved watching the story come to life on stage and enjoyed every moment of the fun, laughter, and excitement. Experiences like these help spark imagination and create lasting memories.

Dear Kellogg School District Patrons and Staff,

We are writing to express our deepest gratitude to the entire KSD community. Last night, our two-year, $7 million replacement supplemental levy passed with 66.17% of the vote (1596 votes in favor to 816 against).

This result comes six months after our levy fell short in November, an outcome that forced our district to face the incredibly difficult reality of planning for deep cuts to our staff, sports, and academic programs.

As Board Chair Alexa Griffin shared following the results: “The relief, joy, and appreciation felt by me and probably many in the district is not dramatic or exaggerated. The employees, students, and supporters know how much this levy means to our district. We can now plan our next school year with confidence and know we are doing everything in our power to give the kids the best experience and education we can. Many people put in hard work to advocate and educate for the levy, and no amount of gratitude will ever be enough.”

When this levy takes effect this July, it will secure the baseline funding needed to keep our schools safe and staffed for the next two school years. The work continues at the district level to identify cost-saving measures that allow for the best use of our supplemental levy dollars.

To the volunteers who spent their evenings educating neighbors, the staff who kept their focus on our students during months of uncertainty, and the voters who made their voices heard at the polls, thank you. You chose to invest directly in the future of our kids, and we are incredibly honored to serve this community.

With immense gratitude,
The Kellogg School District Board of Trustees and Administration
