I am a teacher in the Evergreen School District. I see the power of community support with my ability to serve my students.
Levy dollars have allowed my 5th graders to explore band and orchestra, go students on engaging field trips for hands-on learning experiences, receive in class support with paraprofessionals, and stock my school with adequate supplies to make copies and run science experiments. All of these programs and supports are made possible with community backing of levies.
Quality schools are made through our community partnerships. Please vote Yes to renew Evergreen levies. Vote by February 11th.
