• Please be advised, the accurate homestead exclusion dollar amount was not reflected on the 2024 school tax bills. The Business Office has been in contact with our third-party vendor to revise and reprint the tax bills for approved homestead properties. The correct homestead exclusion amount for 2024 is $527.48. Corrected homestead tax bills are expected to be mailed by July 15th. If you received a 2024 tax bill and were approved for homestead, please disregard.
