Half Hollow Hills Central School District

2010- 2011

Proposed Budget

Continuing Challenges for 2010/11

Run an efficient system without negatively impacting programs for our studentsGovernor’s Gap Elimination Plan would reduce our state aid by a net of $2.7 million.Unfunded mandates and cost shifts.The MTA Tax, implemented for the 2009/10 school year, will continue in 2010/11. This will cost HHH over $400K and is included in the current budget proposal. To date no reimbursements have been received.

Looking Ahead to 2011-2012

Federal Stimulus (ARRA) funding is set to end Additional reductions in State AidWe thank our teachers and administrators for opening existing employment contracts and agreeing to freeze their salary schedules for the 2011/12 school year.

Administrative Efficiency

The District may receive Administrative Efficiency Aid which offsets a portion of the GAP reduction. This aid is for districts with an Administrative Efficiency ratio (central office administration expense to total expenditures) of less than 2%. The Half Hollow Hills administrative efficiency ratio is 1.54%, the 9th lowest on Long Island. This aid could potentially return $211,824 in funding to the District for the 2010/11 school year

Safeguarding taxpayer dollars

Positive NYS Comptrollers Audit!In 2009 only six (6) of the 200 audits conducted by the State Comptroller’s Office contained positive findings. Half Hollow Hills was one of the six and the only Long Island District. The NYS auditors found our system of controls were well designed and operating effectively.

Aa2 Moody’s Bond Rating for Half Hollow Hills CSD!Aa2 rating reflects the solid financial position and below average debt burden of the district, prudent budgeting practices and effective management of our reserves.
