9.a.2) 'Classrooms and Kids' Budget Proposal Resolution
|
|
|
Description:
Michigan public schools and the children we serve continue to face difficult economic and budget challenges. These challenges today have resulted in circumstances that directly and negatively affect our children's education, learning and ability to compete for 21st century jobs. These school cuts are directly impacting children, parents, teachers, school staff, administrators and the local community at large. we recognize that the best way to fix our local schools and help our children learn is to restore full funding for our classrooms. State-wide and regional educational organizations, including the Michigan Association of School Boards, working in partnership with parents, frontline educators, teachers and others have now proposed a "Classrooms and Kids" budget that will restore funds to kids in classrooms as a response to this challenge we face in education.
Recommended Action: I recommend that the Crestwood Board of Education approve the 'Classrooms and Kids' budget proposal resolution as presented on Attachment 9.A.2.

Pursuant to state law, the revenue raised by the proposed enhancement millage will be collected by the Wayne County Regional Educational Service Agency and distributed to local public school districts within the boundaries of the Wayne County Regional Educational Service Agency based on pupil membership count.
