After a year of uncertainty in which health and safety spending ballooned and in-person enrollment dipped across the country, the Janesville School District has begun thinking about its next budget.
There are many unknowns in the stateâs biennial budget and the future of COVID-19 funding, and more questions lie ahead this year. In light of that, the district is taking a conservative approach, predicting flat enrollment and state aid.
By an 8-0 vote Tuesday, the Janesville School Board approved the 2021-22 budget assumptions, which set general guidelines as the district begins its budget process.
Board member Michelle Haworth was absent.
