We are honored to have the support and endorsement of Issue 1 from so many of the Mayors of the W-E District communities!
Join the Mayors in their support of our Schools. Vote YES on the Issue 1 RENEWAL!
Check your schedules W-E friends, if Tuesday is packed for you, get to the Lake County Board of Elections by 5pm today!!!
Our schools need your support! #YesOn1
Remember: Passing Issue 1 gives us a FOUR year break from renewal levies!
TODAY is your LAST DAY for EARLY VOTING!
If you can't make it to the polls this Tuesday (May 2), then head out this afternoon to the @lakecountyboe to Vote #YesOn1. Voting will be open today from 1 to 5pm. Remember, Issue 1 is a RENEWAL. Support @WESchools and vote Yes on 1!
Have some time Tuesday? We are in need of poll workers - to hold a sign, smile and support our schools! If you have time before or after work, or are retired and have time during the day - we need you! Sign up here: https://t.co/4NhdbyJkDB
Believe it or not, W-E has one of the lower total voted millages in the County while sitting in the middle of the pack on per pupil spending.
Help MAINTAIN what W-E Schools have... and keep funding stable for the next four years. Vote YES and RENEW ISSUE 1 - NO new taxes!
Passing Issue 1 means keeping your Homestead and Rollback credits!
The state of Ohio covers 12.5% of the Issue 1 levies (meaning we only pay 87.5%.) But that coverage only continues as long as renewals pass.
KEEPS YOUR SUBSIDY! Please vote this Tuesday - Yes on 1!
This would be HUGE for @WESchools! Starting the school year with a new Superintendent and no Levy hanging over our head! A great way to give him a lane to work in without the worry of potentially having to cut things out of the gate! Issue 1 is a RENEWAL - VOTE YES!
It costs money to put a levy on a ballot - money coming from taxpayers. (Up to $90k each and every time.)
Passage of Issue 1 will result in cost savings as there isn't another RENEWAL issue until FOUR years from now!
Save money AND get a break from the renewal cycle. Vote #YesOn1
@WESchools support all our students - from the advanced, to those who struggle, the college bound, to those who want to be workforce ready upon graduation.
Voting #YesOn1 will MAINTAIN learning pathways.

Looking forward to the future for @WESchools
However, Dr. Ward can't do it alone. It's up to ALL of us to be active participants! Read my thoughts here: https://t.co/wpulWzSXT7
π’ We are thrilled to announce that Dr. Patrick Ward has been named the new superintendent for W-E! We appreciate all the community input in finding the right superintendent for our school district. #WeBelong

- RENEWAL - No new taxes!
- Combines and extends two existing levies to a 10-year renewal cycle, similar to other W-E operating levies

MAINTAIN programs students count on.

I love Willoughby, the neighborhood I grew up in (and moved back here to live in) and we love our schools and kids teachers!
I made poor @EdMatos55 move here from Chicago because I wanted this school system for our girls.
This is a RENEWAL, not new money.
Vote Yes on Issue 3!
Don't let a lack of investment in our schools effect your property value, or darken their future. After all, they are the ones that will be taking care of us.
Let's take care of them.
Make the investment.
Vote Yes to RENEW Issue 3. NO new Taxes.
