Good afternoon!
Today, September 18, 2026, marks the beginning of early voting in Virginia for the General and Special Elections taking place on November 3, 2026.
Waynesboro residents will see the following question on their ballot:
Sales Tax: “The revenue from the additional general sales tax not to exceed 1% shall be used solely for capital projects for the renovation or construction of City schools, financing and/or bonds, to the extent the capital projects are to be financed by bonds and/or loans, and the additional general sales tax not to exceed 1% shall expire no later than July 13, 2046. Yes or No”
Waynesboro Public Schools does not advocate for a “Yes” or “No” vote. However, we want to ensure that our community has access to information about the ballot question and the school facility projects it relates to as voters make their own decisions.
Additional information and resources are available on the Waynesboro Public Schools website:

Thank you for taking the time to learn more and for your continued support of Waynesboro Public Schools.
