The GPS Sinking Fund proposal will not raise your current tax rate. Our debt millage rate is 4.7 mills, but it is scheduled to drop to 3.2 mills this summer. This proposal asks for 1.5 mills, to maintain the 4.7 mills total rate, allowing us to keep our schools safe and equipped with the resources needed while remaining financially stable. Additionally, because the district will not pay interest costs, every dollar will go directly toward benefiting students.
