Where these school districts’ money comes from: 37% local taxes, mostly this property tax · 48% the state, from income, sales and cigarette taxes and the lottery · 15% federal money and fees. The state’s share is never on a property tax bill. The Schools section has it district by district. Where the money comes from is the state’s split, by the accounting code each district files it under. A district’s bookkeeping can put local money, such as payments from development (TIF) districts, in another column.
