2022 Voter Approved Tax Ratification Election
Voter Approval Tax Rate Election (VATRE) - Proposition B
Did You Know: Only a portion of the PfISD tax rate can go toward paying teacher salaries and classroom materials?
A Voter-Approval Tax Rate Election (VATRE) impacts the district’s Maintenance and Operations budget. This is the budget that school districts use for teacher and staff salaries, books, classroom supplies, utilities, educational resources, custodial, insurance, and other items that help educate students each day.
The VATRE asks for an additional 4 pennies to be added to the M&O tax rate. If the VATRE is not approved by voters, with the M&O tax decrease of 6 cents due to HB3 compression, and the Board decreasing the I&S rate by 10 cents, homeowners will see a 16 cent decrease on their overall tax rate in this fiscal year.
If passed, homeowners will still see a 12 cent decrease on their overall tax rate in this fiscal year, the lowest tax rate in 30 years; AND this will result in an additional $6.9 Million for PfISD to be spent on daily operations like teacher salaries, utilities, and instructional materials. The Board’s unanimous vote to call a VATRE follows months of reviewing financial predictions, studying the state’s school funding structure, and planning for the operations of the district.
