Absentee Ballot for the Budget Vote -- April 17

Last night, after the public hearing on the school budget for the 2007-08 school year, the board approved the plan to be submitted to voters.

This year’s budget contains a 6.5 cent increase. This represents the lowest increase in the last eight years. More budget information can be found on the district’s website.

The vote is schedule for April 17 from 2 p.m. until 9 p.m.

If you feel that you will be unable to get to a polling location that day, you are welcome to submit a form for an absentee ballot. This is the link for the form – you can print out the form and mail it to the address below:

Also, if you have any college students in your family, we encourage you to keep them involved in this important Woodbury Public Schools event. They are ideal candidates for the absentee ballot!

The form to request the absentee ballot needs to be submitted seven days prior to the election, by mail, or by 3 p.m. the day before the election if you hand it in at the county clerk’s office.

The mailing address for the form is:
