Budgeting Process: Community Ad-Hoc Committee

Making budget decisions that ultimately impact a person's job is not easy, nor is it easy knowing those decisions also potentially impact programs and/or services for our children.  The set of recommendations that was contained in the report submitted to the Board on February 27th were developed by the administrative team following a series of discussions about the future of education and our schools specifically.  The recommendations were also influenced by a set of belief statements generated by an Ad-Hoc Community Finance Committee.  The work of this committee was facilitated by Mr. Tom Sager, Director of Business and Finance.  The Committee was comprised of nine (9) members of our community and nine (9) members of our district administrative team and school board members.  The committee met in a series of three (3) meetings where they reviewed the entire district budget.
