Estimated Time:  30 minutes

Background: 

The 2024-2025 Budget Considerations and Update provides an overview of the district’s financial outlook, challenges, and options. As information becomes available, the goal is to meet the needs of students and allow for ample community involvement if there is a need to make reductions.  The Budget Advisory Committee could also help with communication to the public.  Currently, multiple uncertainties will impact our budget.  Unknowns include Shoreline funding, passing the parcel tax, and Slater lease. 


Below is the tentative update scheduled for board direction and input points for the community.
