The Lake
Forest Board of Education met for its annual organizational meeting on
Wednesday, July 3, 2013 in the Lake Forest Central Business Office. Chris Baker was elected to serve as President
of the Board for the coming fiscal year with Danny Aguilar as Vice President.
Following a
presentation by Business Manager Christine daCosta, the board approved the
school tax rates for fiscal year 2014.
Due to a
successful current expense referendum in December, Lake Forest School District
will increase its current expense rate by 12.87 cents. Because the district has experienced a
significant increase in intense and complex special needs students, tuition tax
was increased 3.02 cents. The match tax
for minor capital improvements, extra time, reading & math resource
teachers and the technology is increasing by a fraction of a penny (0.05
cents). The debt service rate will
remain at 14.5 cents.
The total
tax rate will increase by 15.94 cents from $1.1569 to $1.3163 per $100 of real
property beginning July 1, 2013.
