LCPS Budget: Final Stage for FY09

The Board of Supervisors had its final vote today, cutting $48.7M from the LCPS budget request. The state budget is $1M less than anticipated as well, so we have $49.7M in cuts to make.

Here's what happens next:
  • Within the next two days the School Board expects to receive a recommendation for cuts from the Superintendent.
  • Thursday April 3rd at 6:30pm the School Board will hold a public input session. Please come and speak to let us know where you think we can find budget savings. Please also send me your input via email.
  • Monday, April 7th at 6:30pm the School Board will discuss and vote on the budget. Chairman DuPree's goal is to stay as long as it takes to reach a final decision.
