Gems School Board of Directors School Budget Informational Meeting
The GEMS School Board of Directors held a budget informational meeting to discuss the FY26 budget. Key factors driving budget increases include teacher salaries, health insurance increases, and a rise in high school tuition. The board only controls a small portion of the budget, and Georgia residents pay for education increases across the state due to Vermont's funding model. The Common Level of Appraisal (CLA) adjusts local property values to reflect the state's estimated market value. The meeting also covered property yield, tax rate calculations, and the impact on home values. Enrollment figures, pupil counts, and school choice enrollment and tuition rates were also discussed.
