Where the district's money comes from New Hampshire districts overall: 64% local, 28% state, 8% federal
- Local 80%
- State 16%
- Federal 4%
Of the $27,252 per pupil, $19,059 goes to classroom instruction (teachers, aides, supplies); the rest to support services such as buses, buildings, counselors and administration. Building projects and debt payments aren't in the per-pupil figure.
What homeowners in Lebanon pay
The median yearly bill homeowners report, covering every local property tax on the home (town, schools, county). The effective rate is that bill divided by the median home value, so it's a rough guide, not the official tax rate.
