A YES vote means
Extend the existing 1% countywide school sales tax for six years after 2028 to pay for listed school buildings, repairs, safety work, and technology.

Do not extend the school sales tax beyond its scheduled end in 2028; the proposed six-year school building program would lack this tax funding.
