The Tuesday, November 5 election is an important one for our Mariemont City Schools.
A Vote FOR Issue 27 Will:
- Keep STRONG teachers in our classrooms
- Maintain STRONG academic programs and opportunities for our kids
- Protect our STRONG property values
Without this levy, the stakes are clear. Our schools have been open and transparent about the $3.1 million in cuts we face if this doesn’t pass. We lose 32 high-performing teachers and staff members; class sizes increase and opportunities for kids go away. This is not a threat, but it is the reality our schools face because of the way school funding works in Ohio.
Our schools need our support. Please vote FOR Issue 27 in the Tuesday, November 5 election to Keep Our Schools STRONG!
Fast Facts
- Mariemont Schools continue to excel. Our district is consistently ranked as one of the best in the region, state and nation!
- Mariemont Schools operate with strong financial stewardship. Our district stretched the dollars from the last operating levy (2018) two years longer than expected, even amid rising inflation and bare-minimum state funding.
- Mariemont Schools don’t receive additional dollars when property values increase. Our district collects the same amount of voted property taxes even when property values change. This is Ohio law.
- Mariemont Schools need Issue 27 to keep teachers in classrooms and maintain programs and services for kids. Our district will need to cut $3.1 million from the budget without additional funding—impacting class sizes and academic programs.
