11:25 a.m.: Correction: Blaine County School District’s supplemental levy passed with 74% support, not 96%.

9:56 a.m.: Corrections: Wilder’s $2.735 million COSSA levy passed by two votes, with 210 voting in favor of the measure, and 208 against. Ririe’s $1.5 million bond passed with 67% support, just over the two-thirds supermajority.

9:26 a.m.: All results are in. In total, 36 supplemental levies passed and five failed —in Kuna, Buhl, Caldwell, West Bonner, and Plummer-Worley school districts. West Bonner’s levy failure comes at the end of a school year marked with leadership controversy and financial strife. West Ada’s supplemental levy ask of $27.7 million over two years — the biggest of the night — passed with 58% support.

There were 45 school funding measures on ballots yesterday, and 35 passed. Of those, a half dozen had 70% support or greater, including Salmon’s $20 million bond, which garnered 72% support, easily topping the two-thirds supermajority needed. Blaine County voters overwhelmingly approved their levy with 74% support. Voters in Cambridge, Culdesac, Butte County, and Bruneau-Grandview also gave levy approval rates of 70% or higher.

A full list of results is below.

1:30 a.m.: Two high-stakes wins tonight were in school districts with histories of election failures: Salmon School District, where the passage of a $20 million bond broke a 12-time record of bond failures; and Mountain View School District, where the passage of a $5.872 million supplemental levy broke a four-time record of levy failures. In Salmon, it means Pioneer Elementary — infamous for facilities issues — will be replaced. In Mountain View, it means a school closure and district split may now be avoided.

Overall, two bonds passed (Salmon and Ririe) and four failed — though Pocatello/Chubbuck’s loss was a foregone conclusion.

Supplemental levies were mostly successful: 21 had passed as of 1:29 a.m. West Ada’s two year, $27.7 million levy was likely to pass, bringing the total to 22. But three failed — in Kuna, Buhl, and Caldwell — and the verdict was still out on another 16.

Plant facilities levies passed in Butte County and Fruitland, but Parma’s failed.

12:39 a.m.: Mountain View School District’s two-year, $5.872 million levy passed with 52% support, breaking a four-time streak of levy denials. The district was facing the prospect of closing a school or splitting up into two smaller districts if this levy failed.

12:30 a.m.: West Ada’s two-year, $27.7 million levy is looking like it will pass. It has 58% support with 98% of precincts reporting.

12:10 a.m.: Wilder’s COSSA levy failed, falling far short of the required two-thirds supermajority with just 50% support. A pair of supplemental levies failed in Kuna and Caldwell, and Fruitland’s plant facilities levy passed. That brings the night’s total (so far) to:

• BONDS Three failed bonds; one passed; two pending
• PLANT FACILITIES LEVIES Two plant facilities levies passed, one failed.
• SUPPLEMENTAL LEVIES Seven supplemental levies passed; three failed, many pending
• COSSA LEVY One COSSA levy passed

11:55 p.m.: Castleford’s $8.25 million bond failed with 56% voting for the measure; a supermajority of 66 and two-thirds support was needed for it to pass. It’s the third bond of the evening to fail. Parma’s plant facility levy failed as well, with 51% support coming short of the 55% needed.

11:44 p.m.: Buhl’s supplemental levy barely failed, with 52% voting against the measure. It’s the first supplemental of the evening to fail. Butte County School District saw two successful measures tonight: a plant facilities levy and a supplemental levy.

11:35 p.m.: Pocatello/Chubbuck School District’s bond failed with 63% against. School leaders no longer needed the funds, but could not remove the ask from the ballot. If the bond passed, the district announced it would forgo the funds.

11:29 p.m.: Supplemental levies in Cassia County and Wendell school districts pass, the fifth and sixth wins of their kind this evening.

10:53 p.m.: Garden Valley and Basin voters approved both districts’ supplemental levies. Garden Valley’s win came after controversy over systemic special education issues and leadership turnover.

10:42 p.m.: Salmon School District’s $20 million bond passed with an emphatic 72% support rate. The win breaks a streak of 12 consecutive bond failures, and comes after Salmon became a poster child for school facilities issues statewide.

The funds will be used to build a new elementary school.

10:37 p.m.: The first results of the night are in: A failed bond and two passed levies.

Camas County voters resoundingly rejected the school district’s proposed $9 million bond, with 63% voting against the measure. The bond would’ve funded a new vocational technical school and repairs at the K-12 building.

Aberdeen and Snake River’s supplemental levies, for $1.9 million and $1.4 million respectively, both passed.

6:15 p.m.: A total of $209 million is at stake for schools in today’s election, as voters across 40 counties will support or reject bonds and levies that would pay for everything from a new school to classroom supplies.

The figure drops to $176 million if Pocatello/Chubbuck School District’s $33 million bond ask, which trustees are no longer seeking, is discounted.

Some of the biggest-ticket items include West Ada School District’s two-year, $27.7 million supplemental levy request, and McCall School District’s $14 million bond to build housing for district employees. Salmon School District’s $20 million bond ask would fund a new elementary school to replace Pioneer Elementary, which is riddled with issues. If the measure passes, it would break a streak of a dozen bond rejections. 

And three school districts that have been mired in controversy are seeking supplemental levies: Garden Valley, where state investigators identified systemic violations of federal special education law; West Bonner, where leadership turmoil and budgetary woes have frequently made headlines; and Mountain View, where a levy denial could lead to closing schools or splitting the district into two. If Mountain View’s levy passes, it would break a streak of four previous levy denials.
