Board hears funding details for CTE, robotics, pathways and athletics
Summary
Staff outlined program budgets: CTE and welding supplies, pathways grants (~$21,000 with carryover), robotics competition costs (grant/fee structure with ~$5,000 per competition), and a sports budget line of about $227,000 that includes extra-duty stipends and officials' fees.
Presenter (S2) described program allocations in the packet: CTE and construction classes carry higher supply budgets, with examples such as $7,000 in math supplies and $9,000 for some career-technical course supplies. He said the Pathways fund had about $21,000 this year (including carryover) and that robotics receives a recurring $20,000 from general funds plus grant funds to cover competition fees (cited roughly $5,000 per competition).
Sports and extra-duty costs were called out as substantial drivers of district spending; Presenter (S2) said sports-related costs were about $227,000 in FY2526, which he equated to roughly 2.5 teacher positions when explaining the budgetary tradeoffs.
