District proposes $33.2 million in 2026–27 budget adjustments

What happened

The district is proposing an amendment to its 2026–27 budget, revising revenue projections by a net $13.26 million and adjusting expenditures by $33.18 million. The district says the revised outlook would avoid using operating reserves and leave an estimated year-end operating fund balance of 27.04%.

Why it matters to families

The amendment updates the districtwide funding and spending plan for the current school year, including major capital-project and bond-fund spending, and changes the outlook from the original budget’s projected operating deficit.

The evidence

The Oct. 15, 2026, board agenda lists the budget amendment as an item for decision, so this is proposed, not confirmed as adopted. It says the original budget projected a $9.7 million operating deficit; the amendment updates revenue projections by $13,261,121 and lists $33,177,427 in expenditure adjustments, with most adjustments in capital projects and bond funds. The agenda projects a 27.04% ending operating fund balance after all changes.
