Wait Before You Buy School Supplies — There Are Tax Savings |
Planning your back-to-school shopping? The timing could make a difference. Illinois’ back-to-school sales-tax reduction runs from August 7 through August 16, lowering the state portion of sales tax on eligible school supplies, clothing and footwear. What shoppers should know: ✏️ Qualifying school supplies are not subject to the $125 price cap This is a temporary reduction in the state sales-tax rate, not a completely tax-free shopping event. Still, families purchasing supplies, clothes or shoes for the new school year may save by shopping during the designated dates. Pass this along to a parent, grandparent or caregiver preparing for the school year. |
Kick off the new school year with an afternoon of family fun at Yorktown Center! Join us on Saturday, August 15 from 12pm – 2pm in Center Court for a Back-to-School Block Party featuring music, games, giveaways, shopping, and more.

Spend $100 or more at participating stores and redeem your receipts at the Yorktown Center table during the Block Party to receive a FREE $10 gift card to available Yorktown Center stores, while supplies last. Plus, qualifying shoppers will also receive a complimentary Yorktown tote bag, while supplies last. Whether you're checking off your back-to-school shopping list, enjoying the entertainment in Center Court, or spending time with family and friends, the Back-to-School Block Party is the perfect way to wrap up your summer and celebrate the new school year.

District 45 Referendum: What Villa Park-Area Residents Need to Know |
School District 45 is asking voters to consider a limiting-rate referendum on the November 3, 2026 ballot as the district works to address an ongoing funding gap. The proposed 0.267% rate increase is expected to generate about $4.4 million annually for District 45 schools. For a home valued at about $350,000, the district estimates the increase would be approximately $299 per year, or about $25 per month.
The proposal follows the defeat of a District 45 referendum in March, when preliminary results showed voters opposed the measure 51.72% to 48.28%. District officials have said continued budget pressures could otherwise lead to larger class sizes, reduced programs and extracurriculars, staffing cuts, and possible future redistricting or school closures.
Residents who want to learn more can attend several upcoming District 45 town halls, including Wednesday, August 12 at 6:30 p.m. at Schafer Elementary in Lombard and Saturday, August 22 at 10 a.m. at Jackson Middle School in Villa Park. Additional meetings are scheduled throughout August and September, giving residents opportunities to review the proposal and ask questions before Election Day.
Election Day is Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Residents can find additional referendum information and upcoming town hall dates on the District 45 website. |
