School board approves $1.42 million reallocation to cover staffing and operations for FY24‑25 year‑end
Summary
The King George County School Board approved reappropriating $1,420,897 from instructional accounts into categories including principals' offices, physical services, transportation and technology as part of the annual year‑end reconciliation; board to forward the request to the Board of Supervisors for final approval.
The King George County School Board approved a motion to reappropriate $1,420,897 from the instructional category to several other accounts as part of the routine fiscal year‑end reconciliation and audit preparations.
Nut graf: The reallocation moves existing funds within the division’s FY24‑25 budget — no net new appropriation — to cover items such as assistant principals reclassified into the office of the principal, transportation, building services and technology as the division closes the fiscal year.
Details: The superintendent explained the largest single reclassification involved recoding several instructional positions to newly created assistant principal positions for special education; those salaries were moved from the instructional category to the office of the principal to reflect the updated titles and responsibilities. The superintendent said, “So as opposed to going to our board of supervisors and requesting additional positions, this was a number of instructional positions that we recoded into special education assistant principals.”
Other transfers included reallocations to homebound services, executive administration, physical services, attendance intervention and transportation vehicle operation. The board approved the motion and conducted a roll‑call vote; the motion passed. Staff said the approved reappropriation will be presented to the Board of Supervisors for final approval the following night.
Ending: Board members asked clarifying questions about the office‑of‑principal reclassification and attendance intervention funds; staff said no large swings in spending occurred beyond the recoding and that the transfers align with routine year‑end adjustments for the audit.
