PUSD scrambles to cover shortfall after state reneges on promise

The statewide plunge in K-12 district school enrollment has swamped Gov. Doug Ducey’s promise to limit the damage to school budgets. As a result, the Payson school board on Tuesday approved a major budget shuffle to cover a loss of some $540,000. The district’s 2,300 enrollment has dropped by a catastrophic 15% — roughly 345 students. In addition, about 15% of the district’s students have continued in distance learning classes, rather than returning to in-person classes. Fortunately, the district hadn’t counted on the state keeping its promise to cut enrollment-based funding by no more than 2%, no matter how many worried parents kept their kids out of school during the pandemic.
