Southeastern Regional presents FY26 budget; Brockton provides majority of students
Summary
Assistant Superintendent Mark Morris told the Finance Committee Southeastern Regional—s FY26 budget meets state net-school-spending requirements; he reported enrollment and the Brockton share of students are up.
Assistant Superintendent Mark Morris presented Southeastern Regional—s FY26 budget overview to the Finance Committee on June 16. He said the region—s budget meets the state—s net school spending requirement and highlighted enrollment increases from Brockton.
Why it matters: Southeastern serves eight towns and the city of Brockton provides a majority of the school—s students; changes in enrollment and assessments affect Brockton—s municipal obligation.
Key numbers and statements - Morris presented the FY26 budget total as roughly $41,000,003 and said the foundation budget portion is approximately $38,734,575 (state and local shares included in the presentation). - He reported total Southeastern enrollment at 1,702 students, with Brockton—s share up by 38 students and representing about 62% of the district population. - The assessment to Brockton for FY26 was presented as approximately $5,000,003.86 and up by about $86,693 from the prior year.
Discussion points - Councilors asked why city representatives were not invited to the graduation ceremony; Morris said that omission was an oversight and that Southeastern would ensure Brockton is invited in future years.
Ending - Morris said Southeastern—s students are proud of local projects such as a welcome center at D.W. Fields Park built by students, and he closed by offering to answer follow-up questions.
