Your “YES” vote keeps strong programs, safe schools, and great opportunities for our students right here in our community.

On May 6, your vote matters!

Issues #16 & #17 aren't just numbers on a ballot—they represent our kids, their passions, and their dreams. By voting YES, you'll ensure our students keep the activities they love—sports, marching band, and more. These programs build lifelong friendships, inspire teamwork, and provide memories they'll carry forever.

And best of all? These renewal levies won't increase your taxes! It's about maintaining what we have today and protecting the future of our schools.

Let’s come together and stand behind our students—because they're counting on us.

Our Kids. Our Schools. Our Community.

Renewal levies mean NO NEW TAXES—but the impact of your vote is priceless. Voting YES on Issues 16 & 17 means protecting the programs that shape our children's lives and enrich our entire community.

Imagine Springfield without elementary music, middle school art, STEM opportunities, or the sports and extracurriculars that build confidence, friendships, and lasting memories for our students. For over 25 years, our community has stood strong to support these critical levies, ensuring our kids have what they need to succeed.

Let’s stand strong again. Let’s show our students that we care about their education, their dreams, and their futures.

Join your Springfield Township Trustees and Village of Lakemore Council in voting YES on May 6.

What’s at stake if Springfield’s renewal levies don’t pass?

It’s more than just numbers on a ballot — it’s the sound of music disappearing from our schools, the quiet of an empty gym where students once practiced and played, and the missed chances for creativity, leadership, and growth.

One music teacher won’t be replaced.
Middle school art will be reduced.
The middle school model itself could disappear.
And starting January 2026, sports and clubs — the heart of so many students’ school experience — will be gone.

These aren’t just programs. They’re the experiences that keep students engaged, build confidence, and shape futures.

Election Day is Tuesday, May 6
Polls are open 6:30 A.M. – 7:30 P.M.

Let’s make sure every student continues to have the chance to explore, perform, create, and belong.
