A YES vote means

Renews the current school tax for up to eight years. It keeps funding for school programs, class sizes, staff, and student safety.

A NO vote means

Rejects the renewal, but the current tax still runs until it expires in 2028. The ballot estimates a typical home's yearly bill would drop about $164 after that.
