BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
BUDGET BITES
Curious about the District budget? Here is a snippet of the FY24 Budget and the budget development process.
REVENUE
The district’s revenue consists of the following sources:
Local funds - Local funds include property tax revenue, CPPRT (Corporate Personal Property Replacement Taxes,) and any fees charged.
State funds - State funds consist of unrestricted and restricted funding. The unrestricted funds are Evidence-Based funding(EBF.) This used to be called General State Aid. The formula for EBF is very complicated, but the primary drivers of the formula are enrollment, low-income numbers, English language learners, and the Equalized Assessed Value of the community. Restricted funds include transportation reimbursements, preschool grants, special education money, and bilingual education money.
Federal funds - Federal funds are restricted.These funds can only be used for the purpose outlined in the grant. These grants include but are not limited to Title grants, ESSER/ARP, IDEA, and preschool grants.
Transparency: The revenue received by the district is reported verbally to the Board of Education at every board meeting. Additionally, the revenue is reported to the Board of Education in the monthly budget report.
