Kenton County Schools give taxpayers a break

Add the Kenton County School System to the small but growing list of Kentucky school districts that are working with taxpayers in these very troubled financial times.

Thanks to good fiscal management, this district voted not to increase taxes last month, joining the Walton-Verona Independent schools which also held the tax line and the Beechwood Independent Schools which actually voted a small tax reduction for this year.

If you know of other districts that are helping out their communities by resisting the temptation to raise taxes for the hard-pressed citizens of this state, we’d like to mention them, as well.
