Tentative Budget for 2020 is on display in the July 23, 2019 Board documents.
The state form is here.
Schedule from website:
- July 23, 2019 – Discuss and place a tentative budget on public display.
- August 20, 2019 – Hold a public hearing on the budget and consider any significant revisions.
- September 24, 2019 – Adopt the final budget.
Video of meeting where they discuss the budget (should be cued to start of budget discussion about 15 min in): https://youtu.be/kO_9Uk44lnE?t=927
They plan for the maximum property tax increase as usual (Consumer Price Index, 1.9% projected this year), while enrollment is declining. Health insurance benefit costs are out of control (with $250 deductibles, of course they are; hopefully ongoing contract negotiations will fix that).
If you cannot attend the public hearing, there is a Contact button for the School Board at right.
