FY’17 budget has been developed as a transitional budget to support our work implementing the Multi Tiered System of Suppports (MTSS) initiative, addresses historical deficit creating line items, targeted program improvement but has been crafted thoughtfully to provide flexibility for future leadership. We are always mindful in our work that decisions are made to insure the long-term financial viability of the district but also that decisions are made in the best interest of students and their achievement.
The FY17 budget is structurally sound and continues to rely upon reoccurring revenues to cover reoccurring costs. We are utilizing "banked" special revenue funds to supplement our budget to provide stability and flexibility.
Our Fy17 budget as proposed totals $66,050,000 an increase of 1.8 million or 2.8% over the FY'16 budget.
