Castle Rock School District
Like other Washington school districts, Castle Rock relies on local bonds and levies to ensure our schools have the resources needed to provide a high-quality education for every student. Proposition 1 would authorize an Educational Program and Operations (EP&O) Replacement Levy, renewing funding from the existing levy which is set to expire.
Currently, the expiring levy accounts for 12.96% of the district’s budget, and the levy’s renewal rate is a reflection of the growing student body and increasing budget. If passed, the EP&O Levy would renew at estimated rates between $1.72 and $1.79 per $1,000 in assessed property value over its three-year term. At the highest end, the levy renewal would cost the owner of a $215,000 home approximately $385 annually.
The Castle Rock School District is growing in size, and in order to continue offering high-quality learning, our community must keep up with the costs of the basic operations. The levy funds basic programs and expenses that enrich local education, keep our students safe at school, and close learning gaps through opportunity. Proposition 1 is earmarked to fund costs for technology, special education, instructional materials, athletics programming, secretaries, paraeducators, nurses, maintenance and repairs, counselors and school psychologists, and more.
Vote Yes on Castle Rock School District Proposition 1 to give our students the learning environments, resources, and programs they need to thrive.

Napavine School District
Like other local school districts, Napavine relies on local levies and bonds to bridge the gap in state funding needed to offer a modern and safe education.
Napavine School District Proposition 1 would replace the expiring Educational Programs and Operations (EP&O) Levy. Previously approved by voters in 2022, the EP&O Levy keeps our district running with the programs and resources that our students rely on for a well-rounded education. Napavine students benefit from extracurricular programs, athletics, arts, and special education programs – all of which will lose funding if the EP&O Levy is not renewed. Currently, the levy also covers the cost of some regular maintenance, technology upgrades, and transportation costs. It is a vital source of funding for our schools. At $1.55 per $1,000 in assessed property value, this levy would cost the owner of a $465,000 home approximately $721 a year for three years.
Vote Yes on Napavine School District Proposition 1 so that all our students have the resources and learning environments to thrive at school.
