A YES vote means

A yes vote replaces the current school tax with a higher one for classrooms and staff. It also lets the separate school tax question take effect if voters approve it.

A NO vote means

A no vote keeps the current school tax plan and blocks this increase. The separate school tax question could not take effect.
