Summary
At a March 18 Finance Committee meeting, Business Manager Kristi Borglund presented a revised 2025–26 budget, reporting current enrollment of 268 ADM K–12 and projecting 258 ADM next year; she cited statewide shifts to online schooling as a factor.
Business Manager Kristi Borglund presented the school district’s revised 2025–26 budget at the Finance Committee of the Whole meeting on March 18, 2026, noting that enrollment is a primary revenue driver. “Our enrollment is holding steady at 268 ADM K-12. We are looking at a lower pupil count next year at an estimated 258,” Borglund said as she compared the original proposed budget to a new revised version.
Borglund told board members the annual budget is tied to the number of students in the building and that the district is watching a statewide trend of students moving to online schooling and homeschooling. The committee record includes no formal motions or votes on the revised budget during this session; the discussion centered on the updated figures and budgeting assumptions tied to average daily membership (ADM).
