Assistant Superintendent Chris Delehanty and Director Sarah Smart outlined program priorities under the 'Destination 2028' framework—STEAM+, small class sizes, intervention supports, counselors, world language and technology—while flagging funding tradeoffs and enrollment monitoring for planning.

Assistant Superintendent of Business Services Chris Delehanty and Director of Fiscal Services Sarah Smart presented the district's program priorities under the Destination 2028 framework, identifying STEAM+ (in partnership with DMSEF), investments aimed at maintaining small class sizes, intervention supports, school counselors, world‑language programs and technology as focal areas for budgeting.

Staff positioned those priorities against the district’s multi‑year projections and reserve outlook to illustrate tradeoffs. The presentation listed enrollment by school site and technology needs as inputs to resource allocation and noted that some enhancements will require additional funding or reallocation of existing reserves; the supplied transcript excerpt lists Transitional Kindergarten among items currently unfunded.
