The Manhattan School District will hold its Annual School Election on May 4, 2021, and will include a Trustee election and a request for a General Fund operating levy for the high school district.
The high school has not passed an operating levy since 2014. Last year, the district ran an elementary and a high school district operating levy. The elementary district levy passed and the high school district levy failed. These were the first levy elections since the 2016 bond election.
Although the elementary district could ask their voters for a General Fund levy request of $27,654.77 based on their ANB (Average Number Belonging), their Board has decided not to go to the elementary district voters this year as a thank you and appreciation for approving the levy request last spring.
