Thank you, voters. 2024 Capital Levy currently passing at 51.29%

Thank You, PSD Voters, for your unwavering support. We are thrilled to share that Proposition 1, the Capital Levy, is passing with a 51.29% approval rating! On February 23, the election will be certified, and work can start.  

Your direct taxpayer support of our schools enables us to address 906 critical projects districtwide. These projects span building improvements, technology upgrades, safety and security enhancements, and improvements to outdoor programs. Each of these projects is crucial in meeting the evolving needs of our students and staff.  

Funds designated for capital projects must be strictly used for their intended purposes and cannot be diverted to cover general operating expenses.
