Summary

The Gettysburg Area School District Board voted unanimously to adopt the Act 1 resolution that sets the preliminary 2025–26 budget index at 4.8%, a cap the district said it will not exceed for tax-rate calculations.

At its meeting, the Gettysburg Area School District Board voted to adopt an Act 1 resolution indicating the district will not exceed a 4.8% index for the 2025–26 budget.

Board members moved and seconded the item and the board called the roll. Tim (yes), Ryan (yes), Alice (yes), Jeremy (yes), Michelle (yes), Al (yes) and the board president (yes) recorded affirmative votes. The motion carried and the resolution was adopted.

Board staff described the vote as part of the district’s annual budget process: adopting the Act 1 index is a procedural step that allows the district to prepare next year’s budget under the cap and, if not approved, would require an alternative budget timetable.

No amendments or conditions were recorded in the meeting minutes; the board did not discuss specific budget allocations tied to the resolution at this session.
