SAVE THE DATE - FEBRUARY 4TH

We Need Your Help – Save-the-Date

The Waukee Board of Education is calling for a special election to fund construction of a new elementary school at the intersection of Dartmoor and Douglas Parkway in Waukee.

We need your help. Please mark your calendars to vote “yes” on February 4, 2014.  You can also vote by absentee ballot. 

Waukee Community District continues to be the fastest growing district in Iowa. For more than five years we have averaged 466 new students per year with about 209 of those at the elementary level.

It is critical to vote “yes” now to create more classroom space to accommodate the rapid growth and avoid school overcrowding. Increased enrollment is not dependent on the availability of facilities. Building needs will continue to increase with time and potentially cost more to solve if we wait.

This vote does NOT raise taxes. The passage of the school levy portion of property taxes will remain unchanged at $16.58. (The school district does not set any other tax rates.) 

Please share this information with others and encourage them to save-the-date. If you are interested in receiving an absentee ballot, please fill out the request form and mail to:

Auditor, 910 Court Street, Adel, IA 50003

Provided by Waukee for Excellence in Education committee.
