Town Hall Budget Meetings
Please watch this site for ongoing district budget updates. Superintendent's Budget Update
As you know, the District is feeling the impact of the state budget crisis and the loss of local property tax revenues. Over the last three board meetings (Dec – Feb), we have identified program and staffing savings to reduce costs. With the cooperation of our teachers’ union and the Board of Trustees decision to use part of our reserves, we have reduced a $3.06 million shortfall for 2010-11 to around $650,000. Through continued negotiations and small reductions in staffing, we will achieve a balanced budget for 2010-11. The larger challenges lay ahead in the 2011-12 and 2012-13 school years. With the flattening of local property tax collections and the dysfunctional state budget, we face future shortfalls that threaten the quality of our two comprehensive high schools. We invite you to attend one of two Town Hall meetings (February 23 or February 25) – designed to bring the community together to learn more and provide input about this critical issue. Budget information to be presented at the town hall meetings is available on the district web site at www.lgsuhsd.org. And if you have questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me at cmatsuoka@lgsuhsd.org.
Budget Information LedgerIn an effort to keep you, our community, apprised of issues relating to the current budget situation, we will be posting relevant documents from recent board meetings.
