Collierville, Tennessee MUNICIPAL SCHOOL DISTRICT FAQs

Collierville MUNICIPAL SCHOOL DISTRICT FAQs

WHAT IS ON THE JULY 16, 2013, BALLOT?
The July 16 ballot will include a referendum on whether the Town of Collierville should be authorized to create a municipal school district, which includes raising and spending the required amount of local funds to meet Collierville’s financial obligation for school funding, established by state law.

WHAT IS THE REFERENDUM QUESTION?
“Shall the Town of Collierville create a municipal school system that shall meet the standards of adequacy established by applicable State law and regulation, which standards include raising and spending each year the required amount of local funds for the operation of the municipal school system that, for calculation purposes only, would at least be equal to the amount that would be raised through a fifteen cents ($.15) tax levy on each One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) of taxable property for each year if all such taxes were collected?”

DOES THE TOWN PLAN TO INCREASE THE SALES TAX OR RAISE PROPERTY TAXES?
No. On August 2, 2012, citizens of Collierville voted in a referendum to support an increase in the sales tax from 2.25% to 2.75%, which would be used to meet the funding requirement for a new municipal school district. There is nothing on the July 16, 2013, referendum ballot that would increase the sales tax or the property tax.

CAN COLLIERVILLE AFFORD TO START ITS OWN PUBLIC SCHOOLS?
Yes. Tennessee laws require that taxes collected for schools must “follow the children.” The municipality’s public schools would receive at least the same state and county funding as the county’s schools in Collierville currently receive. In fact, approximately 94% of the funding needed to operate a municipal school district comparable to the current system would come from county, state and federal funds. The balance would be covered from the half-cent sales tax increase that citizens voted for last summer.

WHAT AUTHORITY WOULD A COLLIERVILLE MUNICIPAL SCHOOL DISTRICT HAVE?
A Collierville Municipal School District would operate independently of any county or unified school district. A municipal school district would ensure local control of Collierville public schools. It would establish the right of Collierville citizens to elect a municipal board of education that would appoint a superintendent for the Collierville Municipal School District.

WHEN AND WHERE CAN I VOTE?
The official referendum vote is scheduled for July 16, 2013, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., at your assigned voting precinct. Early Voting is July 6, 2013- July 11, 2013. Weekday voting will take place from 10 AM - 7 PM and Saturday 10 AM - 4 PM. Sunday there will be no voting. Location: 575 W Shelton Rd, Collierville TN 38017.

Allison Pierce Encourages Collierville Citizens to Vote on Municipal Schools Referendum

Dates, times, and location have been set for Collierville residents to vote on a municipal school referendum.
Early Voting begins July 6, 2013 and will end on July 11, 2013. Weekday voting will take place from 10 AM - 7 PM and Saturday 10 AM - 4 PM. Sunday there will be no voting. Collierville residents can vote at Collierville Church of Christ located at 575 W Shelton Rd, Collierville TN 38017.

Collierville residents who do not vote early will have an additional opportunity July 16, 2013 to vote on a municipal school referendum. If it passes, it would authorize the creation of a Collierville Municipal School District.

"As a resident of Collierville for over twenty years, I am passionate about the community and the people who live and work here," stated Allison Pierce, Collierville Real Estate Specialist. "A Collierville school district is a great concept that will improve the quality of life for Collierville residents for generations to come."

Last August, Collierville residents voted on the same issue and showed an overwhelming support to form a Collierville school district. Although a court ruling nullified last year's results, both the Tennessee House and Senate have since approved the bill allowing municipalities to create new school districts.

If the referendum passes July 16, the Town of Collierville will begin the process. The Town will hold an election for an educational board on November 7, 2013. Those who wish to run for a seat on The Collierville Board of Education may file appropriate documents with the Shelby County Election Commission this summer.
