Issues to Consider and Resolve Improving student outcome with shrinking budget Balancing the needs and priorities of the Ad Hoc Committees with the
limited resources Cash will remain a huge factor Elementary School enrollment and respective staffing are out of balance
which will require change of boundaries or restructuring staffing Maintaining District Priorities with limited resources including: RtI, EDI,
Staff Development, Current spreadsheet does not address most of the added expenses
recommended by Ad Hoc Committees Current spreadsheet does not address EL interventions or some MS
interventions Current spreadsheet does not address the the need to reduce the resources
and negative balance by an additional $3.5 million
