Well… tomorrow’s the big day.
School budget vote season is here, and suddenly everyone’s saying things like “propositions” and “tax levy” — and honestly, there’s a lot to keep track of.
So, let’s talk about what’s actually on the ballot.
In the final episode of HF-L Oversimplified Season 5, Colin Pierce is joined by special guests Smarty the Cougar and the man who puts the SUPER in Superintendent, Gene Mancuso, to walk through the different items voters may see during a school budget vote, what they mean, and why they matter.
No confusing jargon. No pop quiz at the end. Just a simple walkthrough from people who actually understand this stuff.
We’re really glad you’re here.

Capital projects.
Sounds important, right?
Also… kind of sounds like something you pretend to understand in a meeting.
In this episode of HF-L Oversimplified, Colin Pierce helps us unpack what capital projects actually are, how schools pay for them, and why they matter for students, staff, and the community. We’re talking renovations, repairs, upgrades, and all the behind-the-scenes work that keeps schools running safely and smoothly.
Big topic. Surprisingly manageable explanation.
Treat yourself to something nice later, you've earned it!
We're really glad you're here.

Congratulations to Mrs. West and Mrs. Will on being named recipients of the BOE's Cougar Pride Award! Mrs. West and Mrs. Will were nominated by second grade students and their teachers, who noted the following, "May 6th is National School Nurse's Day, and in honor of our nurses at Manor School, our second grade classes (Graney and Erickson) wanted to nominate Mrs. Will and Mrs. West for the Cougar Pride Award. Our second graders researched the day, brainstormed all of the amazing things our nurses do to keep students healthy and safe, and then used the writing process to write their own persuasive paragraphs to convince the Board of Education that they are worthy of recognition not only on May 6th, but every day!" #WeAreHFL
Reassessments? Yeah… we should probably talk about that.
If you’ve noticed changes in your property assessment, you’re not alone—and you might be wondering what that actually means for your school taxes.
In this episode of HF-L Oversimplified, Colin Pierce walks through reassessments in the simplest way possible: what they are, who controls them (hint: not the school district), and what they do—and don’t—change when it comes to your tax bill.
It’s one of the most misunderstood parts of school finance, but it doesn’t have to be.
It’s simpler than it seems—and we’ve got you.
You are absolutely crushing adulthood by the way!

Congratulations to Jeff Taccetta on being named a recipient of the BOE's Cougar Pride Award! Taccetta was nominated by student Evelyn T., who noted the following, "Walking into Mr. Taccetta’s class is always the highlight of my day. Even though he’s armed with a never-ending supply of dad jokes, I still have to give him credit. They always manage to bring a smile to my face. While the work and vocab itself can be challenging, he has a way of making the effort feel worth it. Honestly, there are times I think about leaving the Literacy Learning Lab, but then I realize I’d be giving up that daily boost of positivity he provides." #WeAreHFL
