District-Level Reductions

• Addenda standardization

• Reduce utility costs (change custodial hours, expand energy efficiency projects)

• Increase recycling program

• Smart printing (FY19)

• King Career Center becomes a formal school site (FY19)

Potential Districtwide Measures

• Secure Building (10-20 Calls per night)

• Reduce printing costs

• More disciplined energy use (lights, doors, windows)

• Principal-managed curfews during evening hours, weekends

• Release unneeded funds to help meet other District priorities. We’re all on the same team!

Schools Can Help Improve Efficiency

This is a Proposed Budget

Proposal could change several times between now and the final budget.

◦ Anchorage School Board◦ State Legislature◦ Governor Veto◦ Federal Regulations◦ Other

• 89% of ASD budget is salary and benefits, therefore:◦ 122.8 total position reductions (48 positions will

be added back with the addition of Instructional Coaches – via ASD entitlement grants)

◦ Monitoring of attrition will limit layoff ◦ Impact to staff is determined by contract factors ◦ HR will provide updates to impacted staff
