FSUS hears mid‑year financial update; lunchroom shows 11% revenue shortfall, contracts due for rebid
Summary
CFO Brad Rohrer reported an 11% gap between lunchroom revenue and expenditures to be covered by carry‑forward funds; SIS and food‑service contracts are ending and will require rebidding, and the school's final debt service payment is scheduled August 2026.
FSUS Chief Financial Officer Brad Rohrer presented a mid‑year financial update noting an 11% gap in the lunchroom budget between revenues and expenditures. Rohrer said a carry‑forward balance will supplement the lunchroom budget for the remainder of the year.
Rohrer explained that allowable price increases from Aramark for next year are tied to a federal index that has not yet been set; any resulting adjustments to student lunch prices would be identified by March or April. He also told the board the school's last debt service payment is scheduled for August 2026.
Rohrer added that the student information system (SIS) and food‑service contracts are ending and will need to be rebid; the board can expect a preliminary budget from the finance office in April. No specific dollar amounts for the carry‑forward balance or proposed lunch price changes were provided in the minutes.
Board discussion did not produce a recorded vote on budget policy changes at this meeting; the finance office will return with budget details and proposals later in the school year.
