V.A. End of the Year Projections

Description:
The purpose of this agenda item is to review the projected end of the year balance for fund 10. Attached please find a slide from the October 30, 2025, special board meeting. Administration will review this slide and potential scenarios for the end of the year balance. One possible motion would be "Motion to establish a fund 10 balance goal for 25-26 of $1.1 million and authorizing administration to allocate expenditures across accounting funds to meet this goal". The $1.1 million comes from the IRS clean energy rebate.
Administration may recommend amending this motion later this spring once more information is available regarding high-cost special education aid and state special education categorical aid. |
