For Proposition 9, the estimated rate of $1.95 per $1,000 of assessed property value is $0.27 more than the current education and operations rate of $1.68. If Proposition 9 is approved, it is estimated to bring the total local school tax rate for BGPS to $2.42 in 2026. The total rate would include the capital levy for safety, facilities and technology that took effect in 2025. Future tax rates are estimates. The amount of new construction in the district will affect the actual rate.
