Sales Surtax funding allows Brevard Public Schools to complete essential projects that keep campuses safe, comfortable, and ready to serve students for years to come.
At Rockledge High, Sales Surtax funding made our new track possible. Prior to the construction of our track, the previous track was unusable and unsafe, with weeds coming through the decades-old asphalt.
From updated air-conditioning systems and new roofs to renovated classrooms, playgrounds, tracks, and safety improvements, these investments help ensure our school buildings continue meeting the needs of students and staff.

These officials help ensure games are conducted safely, consistently, and fairly for all student-athletes.
At Rockledge High School, this funding allows revenue collected through ticket sales to stay within the athletic program rather than being used to cover officiating expenses. Those dollars can then be directed back into opportunities and resources that benefit student-athletes.
From equipment and uniforms to program needs throughout the year, keeping more athletic funding at the school level helps support a positive experience for student-athletes while strengthening school athletic programs.

The PSAT provides realistic SAT practice, helps identify academic strengths, and can qualify 11th‑grade students for National Merit Scholarships, which award about 7,500 scholarships each year.




This is not a new tax. The Sales Surtax is a renewal of the existing half-cent sales tax that helps fund safe, maintained, and modern school facilities.
One example is the Raptor Badge Alert system. Funded by the Surtax, the system is designed to enhance student and staff safety by providing a faster emergency response when assistance is needed.
Tools like Raptor help schools communicate quickly and make it possible to respond rapidly in an emergency. When these safety systems are in place, students and staff can feel confident walking through the doors each morning.
Sales Surtax ensures Brevard Public Schools can continue investing in protective measures that help keep every school a safe and welcoming place for students to learn.
