Hello,

I need to share an important correction regarding our bond campaign materials distributed at Friday's homecoming game.

The Error

Our printed trifold contained an error in the tax impact section. The materials listed the annual cost per acre for dryland and grassland, when they should have listed the cost per 160 acres.

The Correct Information

• Dryland: $56.16 per 160 acres (which equals $0.35 per acre) • Grassland: $24.48 per 160 acres (which equals $0.15 per acre)

The actual tax impact to farmland owners is significantly lower than our printed materials indicated.

Moving Forward

We sincerely apologize for this error. We are committed to providing accurate information throughout this bond campaign, and when we make mistakes, we will correct them immediately and transparently.

All digital materials on our website have the correct information. If you picked up a printed trifold at the game, please disregard the farmland tax figures and refer to the information above.

You can find complete bond information at  www.usd417.org -> About Morris County -> USD 417 Bond Information, or contact the district office or board of education members.

Thank You for your understanding and continued support of USD 417.

Sincerely,

Tyson Eslinger

Superintendent of Schools
