Listening and Learning – Budget Input

The Corvallis School District is committed to engaging with our community and staying transparent throughout the budget process. We believe that effective budgeting requires valid information about the true costs of serving students and the outcomes produced for students.

From February 27 through March 31, the district provided an opportunity to submit a budget question or provide input on the district’s budget for the 2025/2026 school year.
