ASE Southern Scoop (9/20/24)
September 20, 2024
A few of this weeks MEMORABLE MOMENTS
Argyle ISD has announced a School Funding Referendum (VATRE) set for November 5, 2024, aiming to address vital budget needs for staff and students. The referendum, approved unanimously by the school board on August 19, focuses on three core areas: increasing teacher and staff pay, managing growing class sizes, and enhancing student support programs.
If passed, the referendum will generate an estimated $2.5 million through a 7.7-cent increase in the Maintenance & Operations (M&O) tax rate. This will ensure the district can meet critical operational needs, including competitive staff salaries and improved campus resources.
Early voting runs from October 21 to November 1. Election Day is Tuesday, November 5.
