LEVY PASSES! THANK YOU, WOODLAND!

Dear Woodland Community Members, 

Woodland Public Schools expresses deep gratitude for your overwhelming support in passing the Educational Programs & Operations (EP&O) levy for our school district. Your commitment to education and investment in our students is truly commendable.

To those who voted yes, thank you for recognizing the importance of providing quality education to our children. Your belief in our mission fuels our determination to create a nurturing environment where every student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

We also want to acknowledge those who voted no. We respect your perspective and understand that fiscal decisions can be complex. As a school district, Woodland Public Schools has a long tradition of being excellent stewards of taxpayer funds. We take this responsibility seriously, and our track record reflects our commitment to transparency, accountability, and responsible spending.

Here's what you need to know:

Stewardship

For years, we have diligently managed our resources to maximize educational opportunities while minimizing waste. Our focus remains on providing the best possible education for our students within the means available.

Transparency

We prioritize transparency in all our financial dealings. Our budgeting process is open, and we welcome community input. You have the right to know how your tax dollars are allocated, and we are committed to providing clear, accessible information. 

Clarity in Spending

Every dollar counts. We allocate funds strategically, ensuring that they directly benefit our students. Whether it's updating classroom technology, supporting extracurricular activities, or maintaining safe facilities, we prioritize clarity in spending. 

Student-Centered Approach

Our decisions are guided by what's best for our students. We invest in programs that enhance learning experiences, promote equity, and prepare our students for success beyond graduation. 

As we move forward, we promise to continue our tradition of excellence, always mindful of the trust you've placed in us. Together, we shape the future of our community — one student at a time.

Thank you for believing in our schools, our educators, and most importantly, our students. Your support makes a difference, and we are honored to serve you.

With heartfelt appreciation,

Your Woodland Public Schools
