The Knox Community School Corporation’s 2019 budget has been approved by the state with no big surprises, according to Treasurer Dawn Bailey. She told the school board last week that the Department of Local Government Finance cut the budget a little bit, and that the district’s property tax rate is set to go up by a little more than two cents.
Superintendent Dr. William Reichhart pointed out that it was initially scheduled to increase by about 17 cents, but school officials were able to bring that down by adjusting the corporation’s Debt Service budget.
