EL PASO, Texas (KFOX14\/CBS4) \u2014 Socorro Independent School District voters will see Proposition A on the ballot in the November election, a measure the district is calling a voter-approved tax ratification election, also known as a VATRE.<\/p>\n
Superintendent James Vasquez was on KFOX14 Community Conversations to talk about the upcoming VATRE. <\/p>\n
The district says Proposition A would generate $49 million in additional funding. It also says homeowners with a home valued at $250,000 would see an increase of about $10 a month.<\/p>\n
According to the district, the additional money could support salaries, student programs, safety, HVAC, and buses.<\/p>\n
If approved by voters, Proposition A would allow the district to access the additional funding described. <\/p>\n
If voters reject Proposition A, the district would not receive that additional funding through the VATRE.<\/p>\n
