Effingham School Board to Vote Thursday on $203M Budget with Possible 12% Rate Hike

Summary by effinghamherald.net
The Effingham County School Board will vote Thursday on a proposed $203 million fiscal year 2026 budget that includes an 11% increase in spending, driven largely by rising state-mandated health and retirement benefit costs. The district may raise its property tax millage rate to offset the $8 million increase in benefits expenses, potentially resulting in a 12% tax hike for homeowners.
