The York County School Division

Public Hearing for FY06 Budget - February 28, 2005, 7:30 p.m. at York Hall

Superintendent's Proposed Annual Budget Fiscal Year 2006

The York County School Board began its operating budget preparation process at a work session on November 29.

This year, the board is examining all existing budget expenditures through a process they have named the Fiscal Efficiency Budget Review (FEBR). At regular and special work sessions from November through March, division staff will present to the board information about each budget category in the YCSD Operating Budget. The board will receive information about current and proposed expenditures to ensure a comprehensive understanding of all elements of the division’s budget. Additionally, this process will assist the board in reviewing the division’s efforts toward meeting priorities and goals for the coming school year.

Throughout the process, budget information will be posted to this site the day after it is presented to the school board at the scheduled work sessions. Early in the process, the school board will not make final fund allocation decisions because projected federal and state revenue may change and local revenue allocations have not yet been determined.

Thus, items detailed below only express the board’s intent within current revenue projections. All expenditures will be discussed further by the board once revenue allocations have been confirmed by federal, state and local funding bodies.
