澳门六合彩开奖现场 Annual Budget
Our 2024-2025 Budget was approved by the Board of Trustees on May 29, 2024
The 澳门六合彩开奖现场 Lead Team has completed a thorough review of the stakeholder engagement feedback collected throughout the year. 澳门六合彩开奖现场 received several responses to the Ideas that Make Cents engagement opportunity as well as the 澳门六合彩开奖现场 Assurance Survey that asked partners in education to identify funding priorities. We asked our community to prioritize where we should invest our funds and create efficiencies. Here are the significant responses below:
- Maintain frontline staff wherever possible (teachers and educational assistants)
- Leverage parent and community volunteers (coaching, traffic guards, fundraising)
- Minimize transportation routes, find efficiencies
- Reduce professional learning days
- Increase advocacy efforts to improve funding in schools
- Facility rentals
- Increase recycling and sustainability programs
- Boundary reviews to equalize school utilization rates
