Executive Summary • Enrollment is continuing to grow but at a more modest rate. Fall enrollment is forecasted to be 20,441 students. Last year’s fall forecast was 20,355 students and actual October 1 enrollment was 20,290. The district’s average annual headcount for the 2017/2018 school year was 20,271. • The McCleary solution put in place in the 2017 legislative session and further modified in the 2018 legislative session is resulting in a revenue increase of almost 19% in one year. However, in subsequent years revenue will remain relatively flat while expenses are expected to continue to increase. • Historically revenue has grown an average of 9% year over year. Over the next three years, this average is expected to drop to 1.3%. If there are no changes in the current funding models, then we will have to reduce expenditures including a potential reduction in staffing and/or reduce general fund reserves to maintain financial stability. 5
Executive Summary • What worked before will not work in the future – even the “Everybody Comes Back” budget will not be sustainable in the long run. • Historically new initiatives were funded by an increase in funding, expanding time or adding people – tighter resources will become our norm especially as health care, pension costs and other programs impact state finances. • We need to change the way we do business by: • Including cost effectiveness as part of the equation when evaluating programs and initiatives and their impact on student achievement; • Being nimble and shifting resources regularly by reducing and refining programs and initiatives; • Establishing a systemic approach for evaluating programs and initiatives to drive financial decision-making; • Ensuring financial planning is a multi-year, year around process aligned to the strategic direction of the organization; 6 • Increasing accountability to demonstrate the impact of initiatives and programs.
Strategic Budget Process • Focus decisions on strategic goals, not departments • Include all funds in process to maximize alignment and transparency of restricted funds • Integrating stakeholder perspectives into decision making especially around trade-offs that will be necessary • Incorporate processes and tools that look at the Academic Return-on-Investments (A- ROI) including the cost and quality of services • Investment and reallocation decisions need to be strategically coherent and implementable • Actively monitor and respond to investment results 7 Source: Education Resource Strategies (ERS) Funding: District Budget Development
