Effingham school board holds line on taxes | savannahnow.com

The Effingham Board of Education absorbed a $400,000 hit to its projected revenue for the next year but still is holding to the roll-back millage rate and not raising taxes.

“We’re not going to collect as much as we anticipated,” said Superintendent Randy Shearouse. The digest fell by $20 million from earlier estimates and that decreased revenue to the school district by $400,000.

“That did decrease our income from what we previously thought,” he said.
