TECHNOLOGY: 20.5M

  • Replacement of Security Cameras

MAJOR FACILITY MAINTENANCE: 8.9M

  • Concrete & Driveway repair/replacement
  • Roof Replacements
  • HVAC Replacement
  • Cafeteria Equipment Replacement

Major maintenance paid for through operational funds would be a severe drain on ability to hire new teachers as district grows.

LAND: 16.8M

  • There are fewer and fewer sites available in Fort Mill

with enough usable area for a school

  • Buying land ahead saves taxpayer money…

approximately 1M on CRHS

  • Even through the housing crisis the value of land never

decreased… the price of land is only going up

  • Land that the district owns is land that isn't being

developed for more houses

TRANSPORTATION: 2.2M

Additional buses (~20) to support growing population and aging fleet

NO TAX INCREASE

York County and the Fort Mill School District are currently doing a study as part of the process to increase the impact fee for new homes in the FMSD. The fee is currently at $2,500 and the proposed increase would completely offset this referendum. This is scheduled to be voted on as early as March, and all signs are very promising.

All about Poverty?

The state of South Carolina has a definition for "Students In Poverty". This is intended to be a better approximation for students in severe financial situations than the former "Free and Reduced Lunch" metric. EOCEP Test scores are available broken out by this poverty metric, these scores are listed to the left for the Algebra 1 test. SIP – Students in Poverty Non-SIP – All other students As you can see, even when breaking out Fort M ill's scores by this we are still at the top of the state.

York 3 (Rock Hill) Lancaster Fort M ill rank's 79th of 83 reporting districts in terms of operational funds available to spend per student. If Fort M ill had 8% more per student to be in line with Lancaster we could hire 126 teachers with those funds. If we were in line with Lexington 5 it would be enough money to hire 532 more teachers, a more than 50% increase than the number of teachers we have today. Combine this fact with the exemplary test scores, and you can quickly surmise that the Fort M ill School district is doing a remarkable job educating students, particularly with limited financial resources available.

WHAT IF THE REFERENDUM DOESN’T PASS?

40 trailers per year to relieve freezes and allow

for continued growth. 40 trailers purchased through operational dollars would be approximately 53 teachers salaries that would not be funded, or an increase in class size of 2 students per year.

The space for trailers would reduce use of other

school property, like open fields and parking lots.

Related arts time would be reduced, lunch

would begin earlier and end later as cafeteria's wouldn't expand

School Start times would be staggered

significantly more to allow for more routes

Smaller & older state busses make for higher

  • perational cost

As technology breaks it would require significant

  • perational cost to maintain, or equipment would

be removed without replacement

Testing would be impacted, particularly at

elementary levels as most testing is done on mobile devices

Facilities would degrade and require higher

  • perational cost to maintain, meaning less

teachers

Large projects would require operational

dollars, meaning less teachers

Future land purchases would not be available or

be more expensive. Board would not have ability to take advantage of opportunities as they arise
