Our District’s Physical Plant & Equipment Levy, or PPEL, is up for renewal and will appear as” Public Measure C” on the ballot for a special election on September 10, 2024. PPEL serves as the primary funding source for urgent and ongoing maintenance and repairs of our buildings, and for purchasing needed equipment and vehicles. It ensures our students and staff have a safe and conducive learning environment. Renewing this levy will NOT increase property tax rates. crschools.us/PPEL
