Summary

The board heard budget summaries for other funds the district administers: Greater Waco Advanced Academies (health-care ~$1.251M; manufacturing ~$1.369M), a small shortfall at Guama (~$67–68K), and a needed transfer of about $230K to the day school for the deaf.

Cheryl Davis reviewed budgets for programs where the district serves as fiscal agent. She said the Greater Waco Advanced Academies' health-care program budget is about $1.251 million and the manufacturing program about $1.369 million; she reported Guama (an advanced-academy campus) remains slightly short—about $67,000–$68,000—even after recent increases.

Davis also said the day school for the deaf has expenditures budgeted at about $795,000 with revenues of roughly $564,000, requiring a transfer of about $230,000 from the district to make the program whole. The Challenge Academy and other partner-program budgets were presented as part of the district's required additional budget adoptions.
