Funding sources are unpredictable but we can estimate the reductions. These reductions decrease our ability to meet current expenses. 

Regionalization

• Due to the cost of living in our area, the district was given a “regionalization factor”, which decreased 2 percent a year. What we pay in salaries is not decreasing annually.

Enrollment

• Enrollment is in slight decline, which decreases our “per pupil” state funding. Costs do not directly correlate as basic services cannot be reduced in a 1 to 1 ratio.

ESSER Funding

• $8 million in ESSER III was one-time funding but covered essential resources and interventions.  Find out more about our ESSER Funding and planned expenditure.
