====== Helena school board postpones levy vote ======

> Earlier Tuesday, during the school district’s budget committee meeting, superintendent Rex Weltz said that there would be five possible levies put up for election in May.

> These levies would revolve around safety and security as well as technology levies supplying the district with more security measures within schools and updating the technology within schools that students and staff use.

> An operational levy could also be put on the ballot for the elementary district, but not the high school district.

> This was changed later during the full board meeting when the district representative from the business services and payroll department Janelle Mickelson noticed that the district could present an operational levy for the high school district after the district knows if its charter school applications are approved.

> The board plans to revisit the levies in February, since the district should know if the applications are approved or denied in mid to late January.
