Transition from Measure I
Measure I, approved in 2020, is a $150 annual parcel tax supporting Cabrillo Unified School District until FY 2027-28. These funds have been vital for:
- Retaining highly qualified teachers.
- Maintaining strong academic programs in reading, writing, and STEAM.
- Preparing students for success in high school, college, and careers.
- Enhancing school safety and security.
Measure N builds on Measure I's foundation, increasing funding and broadening support for key district initiatives.
