Thank You, Vicksburg Community!
Thank you, Vicksburg Community, for demonstrating your strong support of our schools in the May 6 school election.
Vicksburg’s Non-Homestead Operating Millage was renewed by almost a 2:1 margin, which will allow us to continue to collect the full minimum State Foundation Allowance.
In addition, incumbents Skip Knowles and Carol Lohman were returned to the School Board.
The majority (57%) of Kalamazoo County voters agreed to renew the KRESA County Enhancement Millage for three years. The District will utilize the proceeds for necessary capital expenditure (roofs, parking lots, technology, repairs and renovations, and traffic flow improvements which cannot otherwise be afforded.
Our hats are off to our voters, and our commitment to you is continued excellence and fiscal integrity.
