Staff lays out 2025–26 assumptions: state funding, weights and a $2.7M beginning balance
Summary
District staff presented the 2025–26 budget assumptions: state school fund baseline, enrollment/weighted-student counts, revenue components, and a projected $2.7 million beginning fund balance for next year.
District staff presented the proposed 2025–26 budget assumptions, walking the committee through the state funding baseline, weighted student counts and the projected beginning fund balance.
“This school year, the 2526 budget year, the governor's budget is 11,360,000,000,” Denise said while explaining the state-level baseline used in the document. Denise told the committee the district is budgeting roughly 1,525 average daily membership (ADMR) and about 1,961 weighted students (ADNW) for 2025–26 and that local revenue will come from property taxes, transportation reimbursement and the state school fund. She added the district expects to start 2025–26 with about $2,700,000 in beginning fund balance.
The presentation explained how weights work (additional weights for special education, English-language learners and poverty) and noted declining enrollment compared with prior years; staff said the budget will include a supplemental budget in the next meeting to spend funds tied to about 45 extra weights realized this year.
