RANTOUL – Rantoul Township High School board members pledged Monday night to eliminate a portion of the high school's property tax if voters approve a proposed countywide sales tax for education.

The school board directed Superintendent David Requa to draft a letter to the Champaign County Board pledging to abate 18.12 cents per $100 equalized assessed valuation in bond property tax money if the sales tax goes into effect.
