The School Board and administration have long taken a practical and cost-effective approach when it comes to making facility improvements. They have a history of respecting the needs of our property taxpayers.
Cal-Wheat’s total levy rate has declined by more than 15% since 2013. We are now asking voters to consider a $7.5 million bond referendum on November 5 that, if approved, would provide the funds needed to address facility challenges in our schools.
The proposed tax impact of the bond referendum is $2.70 per $1,000 of taxable property value, which amounts to an additional $14.55 per month on a home assessed at $150,000.

The CWEA shirts for Mrs. Linville’s fundraiser have arrived and are being sorted this morning. Please stay tuned for pickup information. We will send out notification when the orders are ready.
REMINDER: Don’t forget to attend our community meeting on Tuesday at the high school in Wheatland, starting at 7:00pm.
This event will provide residents with an opportunity to learn more about the $7.5 million bond referendum on the November ballot, ask questions, and provide feedback.
Find more details about the bond and the ways it would provide more resources and opportunities for our students: https://www.calwheatbond2024.org
If you’re a registered voter who resides in the Calamus-Wheatland Community School District, you can request a mailed absentee ballot for the November 5 election through your county auditor’s office.
Mailed ballots will be sent out beginning October 17. The final day to request a mailed ballot is October 21.

On Tuesday, November 5, our communities will consider a $7.5 million bond referendum that, if approved by at least 60% of voters, will provide the funds needed to address facility needs in both communities.
If approved by at least 60% of voters, the bond issue would have an estimated tax impact of $2.70 per year on $1,000 of taxable property value. This would amount to $14.55 per month on a home with an assessed value of $150,000.

Mrs. Luepker's Accounting class did a hands on activity today to reinforce concepts regarding business transactions and how they affect the accounting equation.
Mrs. Luepker's students practiced creating professional business letters. They chose a company or celebrity to write to. True Grell received our first response from the University of Iowa football team.
On Friday, we opened the Warrior Store for 7th-12th graders! Students are able to earn Warrior dollars by Being Safe, Being Respectful, Being Responsible and Doing Their Best.
