Be a part of the decision. The School District of Athens has two referendum questions on the November 8 general election ballot. Your vote matters.
October 26th was the first day of the 95th annual National FFA Convention in Indianapolis, Indiana. There were over 67,000 FFA members from across the country in attendance, and three of those members were ours.
Our Athens FFA members got to tour the Fair Oaks Farm swine facility, walked through and talked to various businesses and colleges at the expo hall, connected with old friends and made new ones, attend sessions where they listened to amazing keynote speakers and retiring addresses, and got to have fun at the trampoline park.
They had the opportunity to support our National Central Region Vice President from Wisconsin, Courtney Zimmerman as she gave her retiring address and closed out her amazing year of service.
REFERENDUM UPDATE: If approved, the referendum tax impact decreases due to additional state aid. Why? On October 15, our District was informed of additional state aid that results in a reduction to the property tax mill rate. As a result, the tax impact of an approved referendum has decreased for area taxpayers. Learn more on our referendum website: https://www.athens1.org/page/referendum
