  • English and Chuukese

This February, voters who live within Vancouver Public Schools’ boundaries will cast ballots on two levies for students and schools. These levies are not new taxes. If approved, they would replace existing levies that expire at the end of 2019.

Even with additional state funding (McCleary), the local levies are necessary to make up ongoing gaps in funding for services and priorities designated by the Vancouver community.

What the levies would pay for

The education and operations levy (formerly called the “maintenance and operations levy”) would support basic programs and services from 2020 to 2023, including:

  • Classroom supplies
  • Textbooks
  • Equipment
  • Classroom programs
  • Special services
  • Extracurricular and intramural activities
  • Maintenance of buildings and grounds
  • Safety and security
  • Utilities
  • Insurance
  • Fuel

From 2020 to 2025, the technology levy would help prepare students for higher education and future careers by funding:

  • Technology that supports students’ creativity, innovation and problem-solving abilities
  • Training to help teachers educate students on the skills required for success on the job
  • Tablet and laptop computers for all students in third through 12th grades

How much property owners would pay

Per $1,000 of assessed property value, the estimated rates are:

  • Education and operations levy—$1.50
  • Technology levy—$0.31

The total rates per assessed $1,000 for all local and state school-related levies and bonds, including the proposed levies, are:

  • 2018—$7.29
  • 2019—$5.81
  • 2020—$6.25 (estimated)
  • 2021—$5.99 (estimated)
  • 2022—$5.99 (estimated)
  • 2023—$5.99 (estimated)

The actual rate may be different due to changes in state funding, property assessments and area growth. For more information, visit vansd.org/levy.

The election date is Feb. 12, 2019.

Los votantes de Vancouver considerarán dos recaudaciones fiscales de reemplazo

En el próximo mes de febrero, los votantes que viven dentro de los límites del Distrito Escolar “Vancouver Public Schools” emitirán sus votos en dos recaudaciones fiscales para estudiantes y escuelas. Estos gravámenes no son nuevos impuestos. De ser aprobados, reemplazarían las recaudaciones fiscales existentes que caducan a fines de 2019.

Incluso con fondos estatales adicionales (McCleary), los impuestos locales son necesarios para cubrir las brechas continuas en el financiamiento de servicios y prioridades designadas por la comunidad del Distrito Escolar de Vancouver.

Lo que pagarían las recaudaciones fiscales

La recaudación fiscal para educación y operaciones (anteriormente denominada “Recaudamiento fiscal para servicios de mantenimiento y operaciones”) mantendría los programas y servicios básicos entre 2020 y 2023, que incluyen:

  • Suministros para el salón de clases
  • Libros de texto
  • Equipo
  • Programas para el salón de clases
  • Servicios especiales
  • Actividades extracurriculares e intramurales
  • Mantenimiento de edificios y terrenos
  • Seguridad y protección
  • Servicios públicos
  • Seguro
  • Combustible

Del 2020 al 2025, la recaudación fiscal para la tecnología ayudaría a preparar a los estudiantes para la educación superior y futuros profesionales al financiar:

  • Tecnología que apoya la creatividad, innovación y capacidad de resolución de problemas de los estudiantes
  • Capacitación para ayudar a los maestros a educar a los estudiantes sobre las habilidades necesarias para tener éxito en el trabajo
  • Tabletas y computadoras portátiles para todos los estudiantes de tercer a doceavo grado

Cuanto pagarían los propietarios de inmuebles

Por cada $ 1,000 del valor tasado de la propiedad, las tasas estimadas son:

  • Recaudación fiscal para educación y operaciones – $ 1.50
  • Recaudación fiscal para tecnología – $ 0.31

El total de tasas a pagar por cada $ 1,000 tasados para todas las recaudaciones fiscales y bonos relacionados con las escuelas tanto a nivel local como estatales, es:

  • 2018- $ 7.29
  • 2019- $ 5.81
  • 2020- $ 6.25 (estimado)
  • 2021- $ 5.99 (estimado)
  • 2022- $ 5.99 (estimado)
  • 2023- $ 5.99 (estimado)

La tasa actual puede que sea diferente debido a cambios en la financiación estatal, tasaciones de propiedades y crecimiento del área. Para obtener más información, visite: vansd.org/levy.

La fecha de las elecciones es el 12 de febrero de 2019.

Избиратели Ванкувера будут принимать решение о замене двух школьных налогов

В феврале избиратели, проживающие в пределах Ванкуверского школьного района, будут голосовать по вопросу продления сбора двух налогов в пользу учащихся и школ. Эти налоговые сборы не являются новыми налогами. Если они будут одобрены, они заменят существующие сборы, действие которых истекает в конце 2019 года.

Даже при получении дополнительных фондов от штата (постановление McCleary) местные налоговые сборы необходимы, поскольку они предоставляют недостающие денежные средства для оказания услуг и решения приоритетных задач, указанных жителями Ванкувера.

На что пойдут налоговые сборы

Налоговый сбор в поддержку образования и деятельности школ (ранее называвшийся «налоговым сбором на эксплуатацию и поддержку деятельности школ») поможет сохранить основные программы и услуги в период с 2020 по 2023 год, включая следующее:

  • школьные принадлежности для использования в классах
  • учебники
  • оборудование
  • программы в классах
  • услуги специальных программ
  • внеклассные и факультативные занятия
  • эксплуатация зданий и территорий
  • обеспечение охраны и безопасности
  • коммунальные услуги
  • страховки
  • горючее

С 2020 по 2025 год налоговый сбор на компьютерные технологии будет использоваться для того, чтобы помочь подготовить учащихся к обучению в высших учебных заведениях и к будущим профессиям за счёт предоставления фондов для следующего:

  • компьютерные технологии, которые помогают развить у учеников творческие способности, инновационный потенциал и способность решать поставленные задачи
  • курс обучения для учителей, который поможет им привить ученикам навыки, необходимые для достижения успеха на работе
  • портативные компьютеры, планшеты и лэптопы, для всех учеников с третьего по 12-й классы

Сколько будут платить домовладельцы

По предварительным расчётам на каждую $1000 оценённой стоимости недвижимости размер налога составляет:

  • налог на образование и эксплуатацию зданий — $1.50
  • налог на компьютерные технологии — $0.31

Общая налоговая ставка по всем местным и штатным школьным налогам и облигациям, включая вышеуказанные планируемые налоговые сборы, на каждую $1000 оценённой стоимости недвижимости составляет:

  • 2018—$7.29
  • 2019—$5.81
  • 2020—$6.25 (по предварительным подсчётам)
  • 2021—$5.99 (по предварительным подсчётам d)
  • 2022—$5.99 (по предварительным подсчётам)
  • 2023—$5.99 (по предварительным подсчётам)

Реальная ставка может быть другой вследствие изменения предоставляемого штатом финансирования, стоимости недвижимости и развития района. Для получения дополнительной информации выйдите на сайт vansd.org/levy.

Выборы будут проходить 12 февраля 2019 года.
