There is a lot of great news to share from Monday nightโs Springtown ISD Board of Trustees meeting!
๐ฐ BUDGET & TAX RATE
The Board approved a balanced 2026โ2027 budget of $48,296,198 and adopted a tax rate of $1.0206 per $100 valuation.
When information about the 2025 Bond was shared with our community prior to the election, projections anticipated that the Districtโs tax rate would increase if the bond passed.
The bond passed - but the tax rate DECREASED! ๐
Last yearโs rate was $1.0317, compared to the newly adopted rate of $1.0206. We are incredibly proud to continue investing in the future of Springtown ISD while remaining responsible stewards of taxpayer dollars.
ACCOUNTABILITY HIGHLIGHTS
๐ธReno Elementary - 85 (B) + TWO State Distinctions
๐ธ Springtown High School - 84 (B) + Postsecondary Readiness Distinction

BOND AND TAX RATE UPDATE!
At Monday nightโs Board meeting, the Board of Trustees approved the Districtโs 2026 tax rate of $1.0206 per $100 of taxable value.
When we shared information leading up to the May 2025 Bond Election, projections showed that passage of the bond could result in an increase to the Districtโs tax rate.
Great news... the tax rate actually DECREASED! ๐
The Districtโs tax rate in 2025 was $1.0317. The newly approved 2026 rate is $1.0206, a decrease of a little over one penny per $100 of taxable value compared to last year.
And speaking of the May 2025 Bondโฆ ๐๐๏ธ
