Hello, friends and neighbors. Lolo School is running a general fund levy this spring. Simply put, state funding falls short of inflation-driven cost increases, and the only available mechanism is to ask local voters to make up the difference. The school is asking voters to consider this request on the spring ballot. Funding from the levy is targeted to sustain current programs and staffing. (Not to pay for the new school or construction.) Ballots will arrive in mailboxes soon. Please vote!
Yum!! If you're visiting the school for Parent Teacher Conferences and/or the Book Fair tonight, be sure to stop by the Commons to sample the tasty offerings from our kitchen. 4/1/26
