Thank You for Your Support of a Supplemental Levy
Thank you for your continued support of Northshore students and schools through the passage of a supplemental levy to help sustain current educational programs. We are particularly grateful for this support in light of the present economic climate and the challenges that the next several years may bring for families in our community and across our state.
Northshore students consistently demonstrate exceptional academic achievement, and the supplemental levy will help to sustain a world class education vital to that success. We will strive to maintain your trust and use resources wisely to provide an excellent education for all students.
Our children are our greatest resource and hope for a stronger future. The Northshore community has a long and proud history of support for quality public education, and we thank you for continuing that legacy and tradition during these difficult times.
Dawn McCravey, Board President
Julia Lacey, Board Vice President
Todd Banks, Board Member
Sandy Hayes, Board Member
Janet Quinn, Board Member
