Reminder: The Town Hall scheduled to be held at Callaway Elementary is is happening tonight (10/05/26) 6:00-7:30 PM

Franklin County Families & Community Members:

1% School Sales Tax Referendum

FCPS will hold a series of four town hall meetings to provide information about the sales tax referendum that will appear on the ballot this election season. The referendum is designed to allow Franklin County citizens the opportunity to vote on a funding stream that can only be used for school construction projects. (A referendum has already been approved by voters in a number of neighboring communities including Henry County, Pittsylvania County, Patrick County, and Danville City.) If passed, the sales tax will not be applicable to groceries or personal hygiene products. It allows the cost for school construction and remodeling projects to be shared with the large number of tourists who visit our county each year instead of the funding being entirely dependent on property tax increases.

The town hall meetings are designed to inform the public about the school division’s current capital needs, explain how the sales tax will work, describe how the funding will be managed, and provide an opportunity for the public to engage with a panel of school and county officials through a question & answer session.

Below is the schedule of these town hall meetings:

09/09/26 (Wed.) 6:00-7:30 pm - FCHS Auditorium

09/21/26 (Mon.) 6:00-7:30 pm - Snow Creek Elementary

10/05/26 (Mon.) 6:00-7:30 pm - Callaway Elementary

10/19/26 (Mon.) 6:00-7:30 pm - Rocky Mount Elementary
