Budget season is almost upon us, and this year there will be important changes in the budget process. Dr. Brenner, the school superintendent, will present his proposed budget to the Board of Education on January 5 at 7:30 p.m. The school administration then will report on all Responsibility Centers (RCs) in one day, rather than over a number of weeks as in years past. The RC meeting is planned for Saturday, January 9, with a snow date of January 23.
Each school in town is considered its own RC, and spending and capital projects for each school will be discussed at the RC meeting. There will be a public hearing regarding the budget on February 2 at 8:00 p.m., followed by the BOE approving the budget on February 9 at 7:30 p.m. A detailed calendar is attached here.
