ISSUE 14 (SCS RENEWAL LEVY)

On November 7, 2023 Strongsville City Schools will have a renewal levy on the ballot. Our District seeks the renewal of a 5.9 mill operating levy that was initially approved by voters in May 2019. This was the first time new operating money was authorized by the voters since November 2007.

Since 2019, the last time Strongsville City Schools had a renewal on the ballot, the Auditor of State has established new guidelines with regard to school levies and how information can be shared from Ohio school districts to local communities for ballot issues. It is important that Strongsville City Schools provides the facts for upcoming ballot issues. The information on our website (https://www.strongnet.org/community/issue-14-renewal-levy) is intended to assist our community members in making an informed decision. Have a question about Issue 14?

We are excited to offer Ski and Snowboard Club for the 2023-2024 ski season! This all-inclusive program includes lessons, lift access, and rentals for each school group visit. SMS will be visiting Brandywine on the following Tuesdays: 1/9, 1/16, 1/23, 1/30, and 2/6/2024.
