Property Tax Impact

If the Marinette School District’s facilities referendum is approved on Tuesday, November 3, the projected tax impact would be $0.47 per $1,000 of equalized property value.

This potential change would increase a property owner’s tax bill by about $7.83 per month (or $94 per year) on a $200,000 home.

Within the North Eastern Conference, five districts had higher mill rates in 2025-26 than Marinette.

The School Board and administration respect property taxpayers' needs and balance them with our students' needs. Since 2015-16, MSD’s tax levy rate has fallen 35%, from $9.44 per $1,000 to $6.13 in 2025-26—even after voters approved a $30.9 million building referendum in 2020.

With an approved referendum this November, MSD’s mill rate would still be below what its mark in 2024.
