A significant portion of the district's funding comes from the state and federal government. Consequences for non-compliance could mean fines, loss of funding, loss of accreditation, or state take over of district management. Beyond the legality, the school district has a practical and ethical responsibility to provide an equitable and quality education for students.
Funding for schools, especially in today's economic climate is definitely a challenge facing our district. I will work to ensure that our district's needs are clearly communicated and support responsible, community - focused budgeting.
