The Marysville School District Board of Directors took action at their regular session meeting on October 20, 2021, to adopt Resolution No. 2022-11; Replacement Educational Programs and Operations Levy (Proposition 1), and Resolution No. 2022-12; Replacement Technology and Capital Projects Levy (Proposition 2). Both measures are for tax years 2023 - 2026 and will replace the current measures set to expire at the end of the 2022 tax year.
