Voters in the Carroll Community School District (CCSD) passed both the instructional support levy (ISL) renewal and Secure an Advanced Vision for Education (SAVE) revenue purpose statement and elected Jim Friel, Stacy McCaulley, and Jill Johnston to the board of education in Tuesday city/school elections. The ISL renewal needed a simple majority to pass, and 55.6 percent of those casting ballots supported the measure, 1,516 yes to 1,210 no. The ISL, which generates about $1 million per year for the school’s General Fund will be extended through Fiscal Year (FY) 2035. The existing ISL would have expired in FY25. The revenue purpose statement passed by a larger margin with 63.7 percent in support, 1,721 yes to 980 no. As for the three open school board seats, Friel collected the most votes with 1,567, followed by Johnston with 1,361. The race for the third open position was tight with Stacy McCaulley narrowly edging out Casie Forke-Burke and Sara Woerdehoff. McCaulley collected 1,080 votes, Forke-Burke had 1,037, and Woerdehoff had 1,024. Jason Schagt tallied 776 votes, and Cindy Scaturico had 713. Results from Tuesday’s elections remain unofficial until canvassed by the respective county boards of supervisors. Results from all the local elections can be found below.
