Where these school districts’ money comes from: 58% local taxes, mostly this property tax · 30% the state, from income, sales and cigarette taxes and the lottery · 12% 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.
Homes and farmland (Class I) at the certified net rates, before the homestead exemption. Commercial property is rated separately.

A survey, so every figure has a margin of error.
