Summary of April 14, 2025 Meeting held at Kuna High School

•  We talked about the difference between building capacity (how many students a school building can hold) and educational capacity (how many students can be supported well with the right space, teachers, and programs). To help show the difference, we visited three classrooms and labs at Kuna High School.
  Takeaway: Kuna High School is more than full.  

• Our financial advisor, Michael Keith, shared information about property taxes and the district’s debt.
  Takeaway: The amount of property taxes collected and the tax rate are the lowest they’ve been in 15 years.

• Mike Borzig from the City of Kuna showed us how many new homes are approved and how many kids they might bring.
  Takeaway: In about 18 months, our community may have 500+ more students.

Our next meeting is Monday, May 12 at 6 p.m. at Swan Falls High School. We’ll share more about student enrollment and what our schools need.
