The State will co-fund only a specified amount of square footage in a new facility under Ohio Schools Facility Commission guidelines. When calculating the amount of square footage, the OSFC factors in the age of the student population and conducts a ten year enrollment study of the district to determine the number of students who will be utilizing the facility.
The enrollment study resulted in State co-funding for square footage of an enrollment of 772 students for grades 5-8. Based on the fact the district is currently averaging 211 students per grade level in Kindergarten thru 4th grade, the Board of Education determined that additional square footage should be added to allow for the current and future growth of the student population. The additional academic space plus other items which will produce long term maintenance and energy savings such as geothermal heating/cooling system, standing seam metal roof, and terrazzo flooring are all considered as LFI’s (locally funded initiatives) which do not qualify for State co-funding.

FAST FACTS
Cost - Taxpayer
• 2.9 Mill Bond Issue for 37 years 5-8th Grade Building – Fully Furnished
• .5 Mill for 23 years Facility Maintenance (OSFC Requirement)
• Total Cost to Property Owner $119 per year on $100,000 home
Formula for figuring tax cost:
Appraisal (Fair Market Value) x 35% Divided by 1,000 x 3.4 = Cost To Taxpayer
Example: $100,000 x 35% ÷ 1,000 x 3.4 = $119
Farmers – 50 cents an acre annually.
A farmer who owns an 80 acre tract of land on CAUV will pay less than $40 a year.
Cost – Facility
• $33.5 million 5-8th Grade Building – Fully Furnished
• $24.7 million Taxpayer Share
• $8.8 million State Share
Your support FOR the new middle school equals:
State - 8.8 million dollars to help build a 5-8 school
State - Rebate dollars for Junior High Repairs
Federal - Stimulus money to lower bond interest rates
Greenville School Board - dropped grades K-12 workbooks, flat and lab fees immediately upon passage
Greenville School Board - the new 5-8 building includes a Senior Citizen center at no extra cost.
The State funds 40% of a BASIC facility. The OSFC formula only funded a BASIC building housing 774 students. The district is currently averaging over 210 students per grade level in grades K-4. Additional academic square footage and upgrades for long term energy efficiencies add to the total cost of the local taxpayer share.
