YOUR VOTE IS YOUR VOICE!
On August 4th, voters will be asked to decide on the millage that would be upheld for a duration of 10 years which begins in 2027. Here is some information about the millage.
* Will primary homeowners pay more?
No. This tax does NOT apply to your main home (your primary residence/homestead). It only applies to businesses, commercial properties, vacation homes, and rental properties.
* Is this a tax increase for those businesses/rental properties?
No. Even though the resolution asks to set the legal maximum limit higher (up to 19.8 mills), the district will only actually charge 18 mills. The higher limit acts as a cushion against state automatic tax-reduction laws (known as "Headlee rollbacks") so the school doesn't lose state funding later.
* What is the money for?
Day-to-day school operating expenses (like teacher salaries, textbooks, utilities, and supplies).
* Why does the school district need this?
Under Michigan law, public school districts are required to collect local taxes on non-home properties at a rate of 18 mills (which equals $18 for every $1,000 of assessed property value) to get their full state funding allowance per student.
* Who pays this tax?
Businesses, commercial property, second homes, and landlords. (NOT your primary home)
* What will actually be charged?
18 mills ($18 per $1,000 of value).
* Why does it say 19.8 mills on the ballot?
It gives the district a safety buffer so future inflation rules don't push the tax below the 18 mills needed for full state funding.
* How long will it last?
10 years (2027 to 2036).

"🌞 Another Fantastic Week at SOAR Summer School! 🌞
This week was packed with creativity, fun, and lots of smiles! 🎨🌻💦
Our students enjoyed painting, creating summer and fireworks-themed artwork, and spending time in Garden Club. After pulling weeds in the garden, everyone earned a chance to cool off by running through the sprinkler; a perfect way to beat the summer heat!
We also played kickball, continued building amazing creations in Building Club, and had fun in Games Club and Chess Club.
Our newest additions, Art Club and Cheer Club, were huge hits this week! The excitement and enthusiasm from our students has been incredible to see.
We're also getting excited for our upcoming fishing field trip in a couple of weeks! Permission slips have gone home, and we can't wait for another great adventure together.
Thank you to all of our students, families, and staff for making this another wonderful week at the Falcons SOAR Summer Program. We can't wait to see what next week brings! 💙💛

The TeenQuest program has a long history of preparing today's teens for the workforce. For several years, TeenQuest has worked with LakeVille High School building student resumes, honing interview skills, and teaching our teens how to promote themselves to prospective employers. TeenQuest used to be an afterschool program but here at LakeVille, our leaders could see that moving the program into the classroom would have a much bigger impact on our students. About 4 years ago, LakeVille brought the program into our 10th grade English class. Students participate in a Job Fair with mock interviews that can sometimes lead to employment, volunteer opportunities, and they also receive a certificate as a TeenQuest graduate upon completion of the class.
Preston Stevens is a 2019 graduate from LakeVille and is also a TeenQuest graduate. Preston now works as a foreman at the Village of Columbiaville and gives TeenQuest a great deal of credit for his success. LakeVille is incredibly proud of Preston, and we encourage you to click the link and read Preston's full story as told by TeenQuest!
