District overview
Auburndale School District
Funding structure, how it compares to peers, and where major projects stand.
How is Auburndale governed and funded?
A five-member school board oversees the district and holds regular meetings, with finance, personnel, policy and buildings and grounds committees. State revenue and local property taxes support district operations; the annual district meeting and the board have separate roles.
Budget and levy
At the October 21 board meeting, automatic captions record voice approval of an updated 2026–27 budget and a separate $3,465,029 levy. The reported general-fund deficit was about $45,937; slides and approved October minutes were not available.
School buildings
The board approved referendum project bids in March. In October it approved a capital plan; a roughly $200,000 band and choir HVAC item was discussed for 2028–29, without a verified award or funding source.
Participation
The district holds separate public forums, annual meetings and board meetings. Its board page provides the calendar and contact information.
Current actual per-pupil spending and a complete current consolidated spending total were not verified. October figures come from automatic captions and should be checked against final approved financial records.
