School Board reports funding miscommunication to Assembly
Posted by Katherine Rose | Mar 8, 2021
A comparison Superintendent John Holst reviewed with assembly members at Thursday’s meeting. The left shows how the assembly funded schools last year (FY21). On the right is the funding package approved by the Assembly in February. And in the center is what the School District intended to request, an increase of around $500,000.
Editor’s note: This script was amended from the version originally broadcast to include more context around the general fund budget and clarify where money to cover the projected $1.9 Million dollar deficit may come from, including a $1.5 Million surplus from last fiscal year.
