The Ocosta School District will be running their Educational Programs and Operations levy in February of 2023. The board signed the resolution at the November 29, 2022 board meeting.
This is not a new tax, this is replaces the former levy, which the district runs every three years to pay for those items not covered by the state, including, but not limited to, text books, curriculum, extra-curricular activities, sports, field trips, teachers, para-educators and other materials needed for student success.
Ocosta School District is seeking applications from persons interested in being appointed to committees to write the “for” and “against” statements for the Local Voters’ Pamphlets for Grays Harbor and Pacific Counties related to the District’s Replacement Educational Programs and Operations Levy ballot measure to be considered by voters at the February 14, 2023 election. Those interested should send their name, address, phone number and which position they represent to: Heather Sweet, Superintendent, Ocosta School District, 2580 S. Montesano St., Westport, WA 98595 or via email at hsweet@ocosta.org by December 8, 2022.
Just a reminder that there is no after school program today. Our after school program staff is having a training on Family Engagement
