The Hamilton Southeastern (HSE) School Board gave final approval to a spending plan for 2025 of $326,339,619.  In 2025, the referendum tax rate will rise to its limit, from $0.1895​ in 2024 to $0.1995​ in 2025.

The support from the state is based on the number of students.  The student count is now at 20,698 for the 2024-2025 school year, down from 20,913 in 2023-2024.

During the public comment time, support was voiced for teachers as the district and the local teachers association begin collective bargaining.
