Dearborn Public Schools will place an important operating millage renewal on the Feb. 27, 2024 ballot, which is also the presidential primary.  Click "Read More" for more information including a slide presentation.

 The Board of Education approved seeking the millage renewal during its regular meeting on Nov. 13, 2023. The question is a renewal, not a new tax.

 The district’s operating millage provides $41 million, or 16 percent, of the district’s general fund. The money is used for all regular expenses including staffing, classroom supplies, curriculum materials, utility bills, busing, athletics and more. The ballot question is not a bond, which is typically used for new building renovations or construction.

 Voters can get more information about the operating millage in a presentation created by the district or on a new webpage dedicated to the Operating Millage Renewal at dearbornschools.org/operating-millage-renewal.

Here is actual wording of the ballot proposal.
