At the Aug. 26 meeting the Abington Board of School Directors received the district’s June 30, 2025 financial report and approved awards and change orders for an on-site server replacement and food-service kitchen equipment.

Business office staff said year-to-date total revenues through June 30 were $190.5 million, approximately $10.8 million ahead of the same period in 2024; they attributed the increase to the Act 1 index–driven real-estate tax increase, higher earned income and delinquent tax receipts, interest earnings and increased state payments for basic education, special education and transportation subsidies. Year-to-date expenditures totaled about $191.9 million, with 92.4 percent of the budget expended.

The board also approved an award to replace the district’s security camera/media-storage server and approved a change order to increase data-backup capacity; administrators said the on-site data will be backed up to the cloud through a Chester County IU service. The board approved change orders within food service for kitchen equipment and serving lines at Abington Middle School, McKinley and Willow Hill Elementary; staff said some equipment purchased for the middle school will be mobile and could be redeployed districtwide when a future middle-school project is completed.

Board members asked for clarification that the state payments referenced were for the prior budget year; administration confirmed those payments related to the previous year because the state had not adopted a budget for the 2025–26 fiscal year at the time of the meeting.

The financial report and contract actions were approved by roll call.
