BoardSouth Burlington Schools Budget Forum
The forum is to prepare the budget for the fiscal year 2027, the 2026-2027 school year. The agenda includes a presentation on preparatory information, small group discussions, and a survey to gather feedback. The new budget model aims for greater transparency, clarity, and community input. The school board has determined the total budget amount for the coming year is $74 million, a 3.4% increase. The central office leadership team will allocate budgets to each school, and principles will determine their final school budgets based on input from parents, guardians, students, and staff. The voters will have the chance to approve the budget in March.
