District sets $15.7M levy

SANDPOINT — The Lake Pend Oreille School District is once again running a supplemental school levy through the gauntlet of voter approval. The Daily Bee recently sat down with Superintendent Shawn Woodward and staff in advance of the March 10 vote to discuss the levy, what its approval means for the school district, and what it will cost for taxpayers footing the bill.

The key takeaway is this: the proposed two-year levy will essentially maintain the district status quo when it replaces the current levy. Generally, the overall cost offers a marginal decrease compared to current levy costs.
