A Webinar, Get the Facts on the Proposed Constitutional Amendment, will be held on Oct 31, 2017 from 12:00 pm – 1:30 pm.

Recently passed through the General Assembly as House Bill 1285, Joint Resolution 1 proposes to amend the constitution by authorizing the General Assembly to enact legislation allowing local taxing authorities (counties, municipalities and school districts) to exclude from property taxation up to the full assessed value of each homestead/farmstead property within the taxing jurisdiction. If approved, what does this change mean for schools in PA? In this complimentary webinar, learn about the legislative history, facts and implications of the amendment so you can make the decision that is right for you on Nov. 7.

Presenters include:

• Nathan Mains, PA School Boards Association;
• Hannah Barrick,  PA Association of School Business Officials
• Jim Vaughan,  PA State Education Association
• Mark DiRocco, PA Association of School Administrators

None of the organizations sponsoring this webinar have a position on the ballot question. The objective of the webinar is purely information based and to separate fact from fiction.
