The School Board and administration have long taken a practical and cost-effective approach to making facility improvements. We have a history of respecting the needs of our property taxpayers. Since 2013, Cal-Wheat’s total tax levy rate has declined by more than 15%. It’s now at $11.76 per $1,000 of assessed property value. On Tuesday, our community will consider a $7.5 million bond referendum that would support improvement projects at the elementary school and high school. An approved bond would have an estimated tax impact of $2.70 per year on every $1,000 of taxable property value. For a home worth $150,000, this would amount to an increase of $14.55 per month (or $174.59 annually). If the measure fails to receive voter approval of at least 60%, the earliest that a new proposal could be brought to voters would be November 2025. Delaying these projects would likely lead to higher project costs in the future.

Veterans Day information
The oldest portions of our schools in Calamus and Wheatland date back to 1950, which means our students and staff face challenges every day due to the age and condition of these facilities. The last major work performed at the high school was nearly 20 years ago. The challenges that exist at the campus include: ➡️ No secure entry ➡️ An outdated Ag building that is not connected to the school ➡️ Poor circulation throughout the building ➡️ Small classrooms ➡️ Deteriorating floors ➡️ Windows that leak and lack screens ➡️ Crowded stairwells and hallways ➡️ Lack of resource space On Tuesday, voters in the Calamus-Wheatland Community School District will consider a $7.5 million bond referendum that would allow us to move forward with improvement projects at our schools in both communities.
