Over the past decade, operational costs have risen significantly faster than education funding from the state - creating pressure on our operating budget, which helps provide compensation to our teachers and staff.
As a result, our district is struggling to offer competitive wages and benefits that put us in line with other districts and allow us to pay teachers and staff fairly.
Learn about the district's plan to address this challenge at TogetherForLPA.org/plan.

At a time when our student population is growing, our district is increasingly challenged in our ability to recruit and retain teachers and staff.
As unfilled positions and staff turnover have an impact on education, improved teacher and staff compensation is needed to maintain current class sizes and provide the quality of education that our students deserve.

Our district is committed to delivering a high-quality education. But with increasing pressure on our operating budget, we face challenges in attracting and retaining teachers and staff.
On Nov. 7, district voters will consider a 10-year operating levy increase that would generate $450K per year to invest in teacher and staff salaries.
