It Going.

Our Sisters Community has renewed the Local Option since 2000.
Vote YES on Measure 9-161

This is not a new tax.

It is a renewal of an existing local option that has been in place since 2000.  A ‘yes’ vote to renew this levy will NOT increase your taxes.

The Local Option is different from the Bond levy.

Local Option fuels the Operating Budget and allows for classroom impact, e.g. smaller class size.  The Bond fuels the Capital Budget and can be spent only on capital projects such as buildings or infrastructure.

Sisters residents pay the LOWEST total educational tax rates and enjoy the BEST district in Central Oregon.

Sisters has the highest graduation rates’ and is ranked as the 13th best district in the entire state by Niche!

Local Option funds 10% of our annual operating budget.

Bond funds can’t be used for operating expenses.  Local Option is a key part of what makes our district so successful.
