Prospect Heights board adopts balanced FY2026 budget after public hearing
Summary
Following a public hearing with no public comment, the board adopted the FY2026 budget that the district says balances operating funds while preserving capital plans.
After a statutorily required public hearing on Sept. 18, 2025 — during which the district displayed the tentative FY2026 budget for the required 30 days and no members of the public spoke — the Prospect Heights School District 23 board voted to adopt the FY2026 budget as presented.
Assistant Superintendent for Finance and Operations Amy McPartlin provided budget updates to the board during the hearing. The district’s FY2026 budget documents show combined estimated operating receipts of $29,797,790 across the Education, Operations & Maintenance, Transportation and Working Cash funds, with proposed direct operating expenditures of $27,728,935, producing a net operating surplus of $2,068,855 under the assumptions reported to the board.
Board members voted to approve the budget by roll call (5–0). The budget materials included the district’s projections for state and federal grants, planned capital work, and a line for debt‑related activity in the capital projects and debt service funds.
