What's on the ballot?
November 3, 2026
In November 2026, Canfield voters will consider a 5.9-mill operating levy to support the day-to-day operation of the schools we have today. This includes staffing, academic programs, electives, and student services for the Canfield Local School District.
November 2026 - Canfield, OH
How Is This Issue Different from Past Efforts?
This is not a building levy and will not fund construction of a new school. Unlike the previous capital improvement proposals, this levy is focused on maintaining current operations and protecting the educational opportunities already available to Canfield students.
​​
What Happens if the Levy Does Not Pass?
The levy is intended to address the district's ongoing operating deficit and preserve the high-quality educational programs and services that have made Canfield Local Schools one of Ohio's highest-performing districts. If the effort does not pass, potential reductions include:
-
Staff by approximately 40-50 employees, including teachers, aides, and support staff
-
Elementary and middle school STEM programs
-
Advanced academic opportunities, including Honors, AP, and College Credit Plus
-
Non-core courses such as art, music, and family and consumer sciences
