How Do I Get Involved?
IT'S TIME! Time for you to join the cause! There are lots of ways to particpate and make sure your money is being spent how you think it should be. Below are three ways for you to get involved.
1. Join GenevaTaxFACTS by using the form on the right and find out more about how the school board can do better to educate taxpayers on budget issues and work to keep expenses from becoming a burden. You will gain a better understanding of why taxes have increased 121% since 2000 while enrollment has only increased 31% during the same period! You'll see that this happened because no unified taxpayer group was watching until Geneva TaxFACTS arrived!
2. Attend a School Board Meeting so you can decide firsthand if you are getting appropriately informed on issues at these meetings as well as voice your opinions. Don't know where to go? Use the map provided below!
3. Send a letter to the local papers to voice your concerns as well as to help inform all citizens of how these issues are and will impact us! Use the links provided below to contact the papers
