II.A. Draft FY20 Tentative Budget
Description:
Amy McPartlin will provide an overview of the Tentative FY20 Budget highlighting variance over 10% in any fund area. The tentative budget was prepared by former Assistant Superintendent, Micheal DeBartolo with input and participation of the leadership team. It was then reviewed by Mrs. McPartlin and refined prior to presentation. At this time, it is presented as a DRAFT for review by the Finance Committee. Further revision and updates will occur following the committee meeting and prior to release to the full board. The overall impact of the Tentative budget is a slight increase over FY19 which is expected given negotiated raises and increased costs. The budget as presented is a comprehensive plan for spending based upon targeted assumptions using trend data and financial forecasting.

II.B. Registration Fees Update
Description:
Members will remember that last year, a split process of registration and payment was implemented to clean up accounting confusion across fiscal years. This year, that process was again used. Additionally, this year we utilized an electronic notification system to email invoices home, thereby reducing costs for mailings and increasing use of our electronic payment system. Amy McPartlin will provide an overview of fees collection to date as well as our plan for the start of the school year.

II.C. Financial Reporting to the Board
Description:
Members will remember that one of our Strategic Goals is to improve clarity of financial reporting, enhance transparency, and increase use of financial reporting tools. To that end, we have identified reports that will be shared monthly with the Finance Committee and at each Trimester Update to the whole Board. We will discuss the reports and seek input from the Finance Committee regarding this process.
