Campbell County board approves tentative SBDM budgets and revised staffing allocations for 2026-27
Summary
The Campbell County Board of Education approved tentative SBDM budget allocations at $100 per actual 2025-26 Month 5 ADA and a revised SBDM staffing allocation formula for 2026-27. Votes were recorded with two members absent.
The Campbell County Board of Education approved tentative school-based decision-making (SBDM) budget allocations and a revised staffing allocation formula for the 2026–27 school year at its Feb. 17 meeting in Alexandria.
Superintendent Dr. Shelli Wilson recommended the tentative SBDM budget allocations be set at a rate of $100 per actual 2025–26 Month 5 average daily attendance and presented a revised SBDM Council staffing allocation formula along with initial school allocations for 2026–27. The board approved the budget allocation recommendation (motion by Tamara Kuhel; second by Kimber Fender) and approved the revised staffing allocation formula and initial allocations (motion by Kimber Fender; second by Tamara Kuhel). The minutes record the roll-call vote as Schultz—Yes; Fender—Yes; Griffin—Absent; Kuhel—Yes; Owen—Absent.
Why it matters: SBDM allocations determine discretionary funds and staffing formulas at individual schools; changes to the allocation formula affect how positions and dollars are distributed across the district’s schools for the coming year. The board’s approval makes these allocations tentative; many SBDM budget and staffing items will be finalized as school councils and central office refine local schedules and staffing requests.
What the minutes show: The board record states the recommendation and the motions and includes the vote tallies. The minutes do not list dollar totals for the district budget, the underlying ADA count used to compute the allocation total, nor the detailed formula worksheet; those details were not specified in the minutes and are noted as “not specified” in the clarifying details below.
Next steps: Tentative allocations will be used for planning and SBDM council discussions; the minutes do not specify when final adoption will occur or whether additional hearings or public comment on the allocations are scheduled.
