Local communities can approve property taxes to support the needs of their local schools.

Most school property taxes in Idaho require voter approval.

In Idaho, property taxes are applied to the taxable value of the property as determined by the county assessor. 

The taxes are paid by the property owner to the county treasurer. 

Our total Kuna School District property tax rate for 2024 is $2.05 per $1,000 of taxable assessed value.

The $1.24 consists of:

• $1.62 -  Bond or bond for buildings approved by voters
• $0.03 -  Tort for insurance required by law
• -$0.42 - Minus Property tax relief funds
• $1.24 - Total School Taxes

KSD does not currently have a supplemental levy, plant facilities levy or an emergency levy.

The chart below illustrates the different voter approved levies -- property taxes -- available to communities and how the money may be used by the school district to support students. The levies must follow requirements in Idaho law for voter approval and use and length of term.
