District projects modest contingency overrun and reports small enrollment dip
Summary
Fiscal staff projected the district will finish the year roughly $14,000 over a $1,000,000 contingency; the superintendent also reported enrollment at 1,194 students, seven fewer than in September and six below budgeted levels.
In the fiscal director's report, the district projected ending the school year about $14,000 over its $1,000,000 contingency, a September-based projection shared with the board. The fiscal narrative indicated figures are early-year estimates and may change as the year progresses.
Superintendent Wayne Gallagher told the board that district enrollment stood at 1,194 students — seven fewer than the September monthly report and six students under the board’s budgeted target of 1,200. Gallagher said the district is monitoring the decline and would continue outreach to recruit and retain students. The board discussed the enrollment and fiscal figures but did not take immediate budget actions during the meeting.
The superintendent also previewed upcoming agenda items (OSBA ballot, committee-process decisions) and reported a Booster Club proposal for a covered structure next to the concession stand was under consideration for board approval, which the board later approved.
