BUDGET FACTS

  • Proposed Budget of $140.5 million
  • $57,000 Below State Mandated Contingency Levels
  • 0% change in spending levels from 2009-2010
  • Lowest spending change in over 24 years
  • $6.9 Million in reductions from “rollover” budget

PROPOSED BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS

  • Maintains All Advanced Placement Courses
  • Maintains All Music and Chorus Performance Ensembles
  • Maintains All Modified and Varsity Sports Teams
  • Maintains All Extra Curricular Activities and Clubs
  • Offers Free Community Use of Buildings

HOW WILL A CONTINGENCY BUDGET IMPACT THE DISTRICT?

  • This is the second year in a row that the Proposed Budget is below the contingency budget cap. This means that a failed budget would come with many restrictions and still result in a similar tax impact. Some of the items that would be disallowed are expenses related to building repairs, community use of buildings and grounds, and certain equipment purchases.
  • Being on a contingency budget would limit the use of school facilities by non-school groups, which would affect more than 80 community groups.
