Hot Springs residents last week passed a $183,000 school levy, marking the first time voters have approved a school levy in the district since 2008 after failed attempts in 2019 and 2023. The measure was narrowly approved, 149-146.

School Superintendent Gerald Chouinard said in a letter addressed to Hot Spring staff and the community, “Your dedication and commitment to Hot Springs students and our community do not go unnoticed, and I want to express my heartfelt appreciation for your unwavering support during this time. Our heartfelt thanks on behalf of everybody within the school community. It was an overwhelming gesture and a heavy lift. The faith they have shown within their school is certainly the most profound of my career in educational leadership.” 

Chouinard partly credited the successful levy campaign to the efforts the district took with informing the public about the district’s financial needs.
