How Will the Referendum Affect Your Monthly Budget?
If voters approve the referendum, it would raise general education revenue by $800 per pupil each year for ten years, with an annual adjustment for inflation. The funding would help protect class sizes, retain teachers and staff, maintain student programs, and keep our schools safe and secure.
For a home valued at $350,000, the estimated cost is about $21 per month, or $247 per year, beginning in 2027. Your cost would depend on your property’s value. Use the tax calculator at 622Forward.org to estimate your household’s cost.
If your household income is less than $139,320, you may also qualify for the Minnesota Property Tax Refund. This could reduce the amount you pay.
District 622 is committed to keeping this request as low as possible while providing our students with the quality education they deserve. Learn more and calculate your estimated cost at 622Forward.org before Election Day, Tuesday, Nov. 3.
