What happened

The 45-day revision reported roughly $4.2 million more 2026–27 revenue than June’s adopted budget, including an estimated $2.5 million one-time discretionary student-support and professional-development grant.

Why it matters to families

The improvement changes the budget outlook, but one-time funding cannot be assumed to permanently offset declining enrollment.

The evidence

The business-services presentation identifies additional COLA, special-education funding, learning-recovery funds and the discretionary grant. September 10 separately reports about $21.2 million prior-year ending General Fund balance, subject to audit; this is not the same measure as the new-year revenue revision.
