Prospect Heights Dist. 23 will seek a tax increase to fund full-day kindergarten, building upgrades PHSD23
The increase would allow the district to issue about $20 million in debt certificates to pay for building and security improvements at its four schools, as well as add $1.2 million in annual operating funds.
School officials say District 23 has the third-lowest tax rate among surrounding districts, and it has been more than 35 years since voters approved a request to fund improvements. "The district is currently unable to serve 35% of pre-K/kindergarten students due to space and budget constraints," Superintendent Don Angelaccio said."Most other Wheeling Township elementary districts are already offering, or preparing to offer, this programming for all students."
