School Board Discusses Budget Strategies and Reviews Negotiating Team

On January 9, 2012, the Finance Committee began where the School Board left off at its special meeting on January 3, 2012. At that meeting, the School Board authorized the Administration to display the proposed 2012-2013 preliminary budget that includes a tax increase of approximately 3.3%. The School Board will vote to adopt this preliminary budget at their meeting on January 23, 2012 at 7:30 pm in the T/E School District Administration Offices. The proposed tax increase in the preliminary budget would leave a remaining imbalance of approximately $3.2 million.The Board has already accepted budget strategies of $700,000 for next school year, leaving a remaining deficit of approximately $2.5 million.

 

The Finance Committee then discussed two of the 2012-2013 budget strategies related to outsourcing for custodial services. It was reported that the Board will continue conversations with the T/E Non-Instructional Group (TENIG) about cost savings provided by the TENIG group versus the possible cost savings available to the District through outsourcing of work. Continuing on the review of the budget strategies, the Committee requested additional information from the Administration on the strategy of charging for extra-curricular activities and for the transportation required for extra-curricular activities. This strategy will be discussed further at the February 13, 2012 Finance Committee meeting. Click here for the full press release.
