Battle Ground Public Schools is grateful to local voters and the community for supporting our schools. Your contributions allow us to connect every student to a positive future, employ local workers and construct and maintain buildings that serve the community.
In general levies are for learning (curricula, security and safety, activities, student support services, school improvements) and bonds are for buildings (new construction and replacement schools).
Local voters have approved two kinds of levies that affect property owners’ tax bills:
Educational programs, maintenance and operations levy (approved in 2021 for four years: 2022-2025)
Capital levy (approved in 2024 for three years: 2025-2027)

Rates are per $1,000 of assessed value. Taxes are collected on a calendar year.
To calculate the amount that you’ll owe annually in school taxes, please use the following formula:
Assessed home value ÷ 1,000 x levy and/or bond rate
Assessed home values (which vary from market values) are determined by the Clark County Assessor’s Office.
Your home’s assessed value affects your overall tax bill.
