From the Scottsdale Unified School District Community Connection newsletter, dated August 28, 2009:

The K-3 Override is a continuation of an existing override approved initially by voters in 2005. The K-3 Override reduces Kindergarten class size to a District-wide target of 21 students to 1 teacher. These funds also allow us to reduce class sizes in grades 1-3 below current staffing ratios. Additional funds are used for instructional assistants in Kindergarten and first grade as needed. The override raises about $3.4 million per year.

To view a complete Fact Sheet about the K-3 Override, please visit www.susd.org.

Since this is a continuation of a previously passed override, taxes will not be increased.
