Summary

Board heard enrollment and budget status: a snapshot ADA increase to 1,166 for April, district-average ADA near 1,140, and higher-than-expected delinquent local-tax receipts that increased local revenue collections.

Jason, the board president, reviewed enrollment and budget trends and said the district saw a late-year bump in enrollment: "We were at 11 66 when this was pulled," he reported, noting that year-long averages remain lower but the trend is positive heading into next year. He also described the district's cash position as strong and said additional charter-related collections will improve cash flow in the short term.

Trustees discussed the source of the surprise local-revenue windfall; staff said the excess reflected delinquent taxes and unpredictable late payments from prior years (a small estimate had been exceeded by actual receipts). The finance presentation flagged near-term components of the budget and noted staff will finalize the next draft of the budget and work with consultants before the June meeting.
