The Fluvanna County School Board presented its $18.8 million budget to the Board of Supervisors at a budget work session on Wednesday (Feb. 17).
They anticipate that the county will need to pay an estimated $788,000 more than the previous fiscal year.
Outgoing Superintendent Chuck Winkler outlined the budget, adopted by the school board at their Feb. 10 meeting. Increases over FY21 include $1 million in salary increases, the hiring of new reading and math specialists to help students regain ground lost to the pandemic closures, a remedial summer school program, and raises in substitute teacher pay to meet the increased state minimum wage. Federal and state funds will cover some but not all of the increases.

It’s budget time.
Just about every meeting from the first of the year until it’s finalized is filled with budget considerations: health care, staff pay, bonuses, spending priorities and district-wide needs.
This year the Fluvanna County School Board has an additional task: searching for a new superintendent. Current Superintendent Chuck Winkler will retire in June.
The Board would like to hire his replacement as soon as possible.
At Wednesday’s (Jan. 20) seminar, besides budget priorities, they discussed what they were looking for in the next superintendent.
Chair Perrie Johnson (Fork Union) said 550 people responded to a survey on superintendent qualifications.
