Please note that the referendum on the March 3 ballot regarding the supplemental tax for the Weldon City Schools does not automatically raise the supplemental school tax rate. Rather, it simply raises the limit of what the Weldon City Board of Education can ask the Halifax County Board of Commissioners to levy and assess for supplemental school taxes each fiscal year. The current limit is 20 cents per each $100 of property valuation. If the referendum passes, the limit will be 50 cents per each $100 of property valuation, but taxes will not actually increase unless the Board of Education requests an increase, and the County Commissioners approve it.

Weldon City Schools Board of Education will meet on Thursday, February 27, 2020, beginning with a closed session at 5:30 p.m., followed by the 6:30 p.m. public meeting. The Weldon City Schools Board of Education Building located at 301 Mulberry Street in Weldon, North Carolina, will be the location for the meeting.
