Alexandria School District sets preliminary 2023 levy

At its September 26 meeting, the Alexandria School Board approved a preliminary 2023 school levy of $ $17,761,726.16. After 2 years of a levy decrease, the levy for other post-employment benefits (OPEB) represents the majority of the increase for the payable 2023 levy. School districts must fund 2 years of general fund OPEB expenditures before receiving levy revenue, resulting in a $1,402,489.51 increase for the payable 2023 levy. The remainder of the levy calculations represent an increase of only $123,680.67, or 0.76%.
