Board approves budget line‑item transfer for bonus funds and approves schools’ fundraisers
Summary
The board approved a July budget line‑item transfer to move state bonus funds between general‑fund accounts and approved the district’s submitted list of school fundraisers for 2025–26.
The board approved a budget amendment moving state bonus funds from one general‑fund line to another as requested by the state and approved the schools’ submitted fundraisers for 2025–26. District staff explained the state asked that bonus funds be recorded in account line 188 rather than line 189, prompting a July line‑item transfer.
Motion and vote: A motion to approve the budget amendment (fund 141, line‑item transfer) was made and seconded; the motion carried by voice vote.
Staff also asked the board to approve annual school fundraiser plans for the 2025–26 school year; the district limits schools to two fundraisers per year “within reason” and provided starting balances, estimated revenues and planned uses for each school’s fundraising. Board members noted rising costs for playground equipment and said they will consider district‑level approaches to assist schools with expensive playground replacements. The motion to approve the fundraiser list passed on voice vote.
