2025 Replacement Levies

On February 11, 2025, the district will ask voters to renew two levies, which are set to expire in December 2025. Both levies support student learning in all grades within the district.

  • Replacement Educational Programs and Operations Levy (previously passed in February 2021)

  • Replacement Capital Levy for Technology, Safety & Security Improvements Levy (previously passed in February 2021)

A levy is a local property tax that voters in a school district approve to raise money for programs and services that the state doesn't pay for or fully cover as part of "basic education." Levies only last for a short time and need more than half the votes (50% + 1) to pass.

A replacement levy means the district is asking to renew a levy that's about to end. This usually means it's the same tax continuing, not a new one.

This website provides information about the levy, including its purpose, impact on the district, and how it will be used to support students and education in the Cascade School District.

Updates will be provided here as new information becomes available. If you have questions about the upcoming replacement levies, please contact the District Office at CSDinfo@cascadesd.org or 509-548-5885.
