Prop A Estimated Impact

  • -$16.03 Per month for average home value of $298,000 Estimated ImpactIf approved, the estimated impact for a home valued at $298,000 in Denton ISD (the average taxable value for 2025) would be a decrease of $16.03 per month, compared to the average taxable value certified by the appraisal district in 2024.

    This figure includes the voter approval of the additional $40,000 homestead exemption in November. Combined with the current $100,000 exemption, these measures would lower school property taxes for qualifying homeowners.

Over 65 and Disabled Tax Freeze

  • Ages 65 & Older $0 Tax Impact over frozen dollar amountThere will not be an increase in taxes for senior citizens or disabled persons as a result of this proposed bond. School property taxes for senior citizens and disabled persons are frozen and would not be affected by the passage of Prop A as long as they have applied for and received the Over 65 Homestead Exemption with the appropriate appraisal district.

    Current homeowners ages 65 and over will not be impacted by the passage of Proposition A. Their school taxes will not go above the frozen levy amount/ceiling that was established when the Over-65 exemption was granted (unless improvements or additions are made to the residence). To have your school taxes frozen, you must file a homestead application with the appropriate appraisal district and be granted the Over-65 exemption.
