Heads up! We have scanned the upcoming agenda for Racine Unified School District. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |

$49 Million in Public Tax Dollars Sent to Private Schools
The board is certifying a tax levy under Item 3.C that forces local taxpayers to fund $49,070,583 for private school vouchers. This diverts a massive portion of property taxes away from our public schools and sends it to private institutions with no public oversight.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ANSWERS: Contact the Board of Education before the vote on Item 3.C. Ask: ‘Why are taxpayers being forced to levy over $49 million for private school vouchers, and what oversight does the public have over how these private schools spend our money?’
π° Impact: $49,070,583

Undisclosed Budget Details Require Scrutiny
The board is voting to adopt the final 2026-27 budget under Item 3.A, but the attachments detailing the actual changes are not provided in the agenda packet. These documents could contain funding for ideological programs, controversial vendors, or new DEI/SEL staff positions hidden from plain view.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The full budget documents for Item 3.A were not provided. Go to the district’s official agenda link, open ‘3A FY27 Adopted Budget Changes from Interim Budget.pdf’ and ‘3A FY27 Adopted Budget Changes from Prior Years.pdf’ to find out what’s hidden inside before they vote.
π° Impact: Undisclosed Spending

Undefined $4.85 Million ‘Community Service Fund’ Levy
Buried in the tax documents for Item 3.C is a $4.85 million levy for a ‘Community Service Fund’ with no definition of what services this money will fund. This vague category could be a slush fund for controversial programs like school-based health clinics or SEL/DEI initiatives without specific board approval.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Education regarding Item 3.C and the associated Revenue Limit Worksheet. Ask for a detailed, line-item breakdown of all planned expenditures from the $4.85 million ‘Community Service Fund’ before they vote to approve the levy.
π° Impact: $4,850,000
