The board’s finance committee reported that the federal government released $230,000,000 in Title funding for Pennsylvania schools; the committee said Cheltenham’s share equates to $175,000. The committee also told the board the state budget had not been finalized but described the district’s financial position as healthy.
At the meeting the board approved the consent agenda, which committee members identified as including a food service bid and the high‑school roof replacement. A motion to approve the consent agenda carried with an aye vote; the mover was not specified in the public record and a second was recorded as Zachary Heps.
The nut graf: The finance update combined a federal funding allocation for state Title programs with routine capital and procurement approvals; the district said it remains financially stable while the state budget is unsettled.
In committee report remarks, the finance committee chair said two items on the consent agenda required board action: the food service bid and the high‑school roofing project. The facilities committee separately confirmed the high‑school roofing project remains on track for student return.
Ending: The finance committee noted its next meeting date and reminded the public that state budget outcomes could affect some districts differently even if Cheltenham described itself as prepared.
