About the Levy
Teachers, educational assistants, and staff are the backbone of our schools and extracurricular programs are vital to the growth and development of Hood River County School District students.
Oregon schools are chronically underfunded from the State of Oregon and Hood River County School District is no exception.
Since 2004, Hood River County voters have supported our schools with a Local Option Levy, which provides additional and supplemental funding to our school district to keep class sizes low, maintain teaching positions, extracurricular activities, and academic enrichment programs.
What would the Hood River County Education Levy do specifically if passed?
The Levy, if passed, would focus staff specifically on:
Keeping class sizes low
Maintaining popular electives like engineering, robotics, agriculture,dual language, and physical education
Supporting extracurricular athletics, music, theater and arts programs
