LCA meeting confirms 4% budget increase and anticipates May 31 graduation for 16 students

The Elizabethtown Area School District Board Workshop held on April 8, 2025, focused on key updates regarding the district's budget and upcoming graduation plans.

During the meeting, Mr. Reed reported on the recent Local Control Accountability (LCA) meeting, which took place on April 2. He highlighted a decision to reduce the budget increase from 5% to 4%, resulting in some savings for the district. This adjustment reflects the board's ongoing efforts to manage finances effectively while supporting educational needs.

Additionally, Mr. Reed announced that graduation is scheduled for May 31, with 16 students expected to graduate. There is potential for one or two more graduates to join the ceremony, which would bring the total to 17.

The discussions during this workshop underscore the district's commitment to fiscal responsibility and the importance of celebrating student achievements. Further updates are anticipated in the coming months as the board continues to navigate budgetary considerations and prepare for graduation festivities.
