On Tuesday, November 4, 2025, Brandywine Community Schools will have a proposal on the ballot for a renewal of its Sinking Fund. A Sinking Fund is used to fund construction, renovations, and repairs throughout the district.
The renewal will be for ten years for a rate of 1 mill. This will not be a new tax, though due to the Headlee rollback, less than a full mill (.9913) was levied on properties in 2024, so property owners may see a very slight increase. This millage will provide estimated revenues of $424,000 during the 2026 school year if approved and levied.

Count Day is next Wednesday, October 1!
Count Day is when all public schools in Michigan tally the number of students attending their schools. Count information is critical to districts, because each student translates into state funding. Fall counts represent 90% of state funding.
