Budget realignment trims 2.0 FTE but district says classes and programs will be preserved
Summary
Administrators said the 2026–27 budget includes the equivalent of 2.0 full-time equivalent reductions at the middle and high school level due to realignment tied to enrollment, and they emphasized no courses or student opportunities will be cut.
During the budget presentation, the administration described staffing adjustments intended to align positions with enrollment and student needs.
"As part of this budget for 2627, we have made several significant, strategic adjustments to manage cost while maintaining program integrity," the presenter said and noted one measure replaces retired staff at entry-level salaries and reduces the equivalent of 2.0 FTE at the middle and high school level.
When asked whether programming would be maintained, administration replied the district is working closely with high-school administration and the guidance department to preserve courses and opportunities; the reductions are realignments rather than program cuts, officials said.
Why it matters: Staffing realignments affect workloads and long-term staffing plans; the board will monitor enrollment and master-schedule impacts as students make requests and as summer scheduling occurs.
