"Enrollment in the East Palo Alto-based Ravenswood School District is expected to jump by 21% due to the decision last year by billionaire Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Dr. Priscilla Chan to close a private school they had opened."
"The bond measure, which will be repaid through a property tax increase, will pay for improvements to classrooms and is projected to generate $4.9 million annually."
"Zuckerberg and Chan decided to close The Primary School in April 2025 before they moved to Miami, Fla., to avoid a possible tax on billionaires."
The Ravenswood School District anticipates a 21% enrollment increase following the closure of The Primary School by Mark Zuckerberg and Dr. Priscilla Chan. Over 400 students from the private school will transition to the district. A bond measure, Measure A, is set for a vote on June 2, aiming to raise property taxes to fund classroom improvements. The bond is expected to generate $4.9 million annually, with a tax rate of $27.50 per $100,000 of property value. The couple's decision to close the school is linked to their relocation to Miami.
