Every school district receives
state funding based on a formula.

What sets one district apart from another
is the local contribution through a school levy.

Oak Harbor passed a new four-year levy beginning in 2014. Only half of the levy increase will be available for the 2013-14 school year. Once it's fully implemented, Oak Harbor's Levy will fund:

• All textbooks
• All student computers - computer-to-student ratio of 1:5
• All athletics
• Tutoring
• Most after-school activities
• Half of school maintenance
• 34 teachers
• 50 support staff
• Advanced Placement classes
• 30 extra minutes learning time per day for elementary and middle schools
• Extra help for safety and learning in Special Education
• Elementary art and P.E. specialists
