Get ready for exams with NHS study sessions!
Thank you to the River Valley community and voters for the support of our Non-Homestead Operating Millage request, which passed by a margin of 938 (68%) Yes votes to 439 (32%) No votes (unofficial results). This is a big deal for our school district as it allows us to continue to collect 18 mills on non-homestead property in our school district even if the Taxable Value continues to rise faster than the rate of inflation, as it has been. Being our primary funding source, this is vital for our financial security as a school district.
