Thank you, voters of the Minnetonka Public School District, who overwhelmingly voted to pass the District’s capital projects “tech” levy.
On November 7, 2023, 63.5% of voters said yes to renewing this levy, which provides critical funding for the District’s technology and security systems, infrastructure and people.
Thank you to each voter and supporter for your confidence and support of District leadership and for your commitment to the success of Minnetonka students.
This funding allows the District to continue to provide students with the cutting-edge opportunities that help to define Minnetonka Schools’ world-class education, to provide secure buildings, to keep students’ and staff members’ data safe and to ensure our District’s technology infrastructure, software, hardware and staffing remains strong for years to come.
Thank you to the many people who worked together to support the levy and to share information about it with others. A special thank you to the Minnetonka School Board, who put the capital projects levy on the ballot.
