It is that time of the year when the patrons of the Chillicothe R-II School District will be receiving their tax bills. We would like to offer a friendly reminder that the 2021-2022 school tax levy is actually less this year than last year. Any increase patrons may experience in their property tax rates are due to the increased value of property that was purchased or re-assessed in 2021.
