What happened

In March 2026 the superintendent projected a 2026-27 budget shortfall of about $600,000. On September 28 he reported the district ended the fiscal year in the positive, which he said was the first time in about five years.

Why it matters to families

Several years of deficits draw down reserves; a positive year changes the district's financial footing as it asks voters for a bond.

The evidence

March 9 minutes record the $600,000 shortfall estimate; September 28 minutes record the year-end statement.
