Tempe Union reports small ADM gains that could add about $186,000 in budget capacity
Summary
Finance staff reported modest ADM gains since May — +12 in group A and +21 in weighted group B — which Mr. Carranza estimated would generate roughly $186,000 in additional budget capacity if sustained and captured in the December budget revision.
Tempe Union High School District finance staff presented expanded monthly financial reports that now include average daily membership (ADM) monitoring, reporting small gains since the district's May budget revision that could meaningfully affect budget capacity.
Mr. Carranza said group A ADM was 11,760 at the May revision and that the district had picked up 12 additional ADMs in group A and 21 ADMs in group B since that revision. "That additional 12 ADM in group A generates an additional $78,000 in budget capacity," Carranza said, and combining the two ADM categories produced approximately $186,000 in added capacity that could be captured in the December revision if levels hold through August.
Why it matters: ADM drives state funding that supports the district's M&O budget; the district built the FY25 budget assuming a 5% ADM decline. Mr. Carranza said the monthly report will monitor both districtwide and site-level ADM to identify where variances occur and inform future budget revisions.
Next steps: Finance staff will continue monthly reporting and will capture any sustained changes in ADM during the December budget revision cycle.
