Measure B is a $79 tax per parcel for eight years that was passed by the voters in March 2020. It succeeds Measure K, previously passed in 2012. The voters first passed a parcel tax in 1993. Funds raised by this local tax haven been used to support instructional opportunities including counseling and library services, fine and performing arts, career technical education and college prep courses. These funds are intended to address the needs of the student population at the District’s high schools that state funding isn’t adequate to provide.

Measure B states that the funds care to be used for the following:

• maintain and improve the schools’ woodshop, culinary, media and other career technical education programs

• keep school libraries open

• maintain/improve the schools’ art, music and drama programs

• maintain small class sizes

• maintain and expand student counseling services

• maintain and improve the schools’ college prep programs, and

• improve technology and science equipment

Measure B is a flat tax of $79 per parcel annually. Exemptions are allowed for senior citizens and contiguous parcels.

• By law, all Measure B funds have to be spent locally and cannot be taken by the state.
