Hardy County School District, West Virginia
My vote power: High
What does this measure do?
Supports: Public Education Quality
Hardy County Schools would add an extra property tax raising about $1.3 million a year for 5 years, starting July 2027, mainly to keep about 20 school jobs. A $100,000 home would pay about $45 a year, since West Virginia taxes homes on 60% of their value.
Proposed by: Hardy County Board of Education
The county's elected school board. After a larger levy failed in May 2026, it asked voters for a smaller one about half the size.
