NCES principal says insurance, salaries drive 7.65% budget increase
Summary
NCES Principal Beth Johnson told the Board of Finance the North Canaan Elementary School budget shows a 7.65% increase this year, mostly due to insurance and salary costs, and that projecting future insurance costs is difficult.
Beth Johnson, NCES Principal, told the Board of Finance the NCES budget reflects "an overall increase of 7.65% this year mostly due to insurance and salaries." She said she worked with the Board of Education to reduce the increase from a larger figure and that forecasting insurance costs is challenging because conditions can change.
Board members asked about insurance forecasting; Johnson responded it is hard to make precise long-term predictions. The presentation was provided as an overview; deeper budget workshops were planned to examine departmental details and justifications.
