Welcome and Call to Order

The meeting was called to the order at 2 PM.

Approval of Agenda

So that there is agreement between board members on the agenda, and the amount of time spent on the meeting, the board shall vote to approve an agenda for the meeting. To the best of its ability, it will follow that agenda, and allow for the chair to move the board through the agenda as specified.

.5 FTE Band Position

For consideration ($60,000)

• The school's deficit for FY 25 and financial position for the near future was discussed, and although the school would like a .5 Band position, it is probably not the best timing for the school to add it.

FY 25 Budget

For approval.

• This new budget reflects the $8,000 increase the CCSD Board approved at their meeting this week. (Formerly a $7,500 increase).
• We expect to be operating in a deficit for the first six months of the year and maybe even into the spring (135-day count). Depending on how long it takes to catch up, we will probably be operating at a loss and using cash to help cover that.
• The current per pupil allocation would put us in a $1.22 million deficit for the year. The projected increase in funding puts us in an approximately $700,000 surplus for next year. 
• Mr. Stokes brought up the 0.5 Band Director position again. They wanted to discuss with the board the possibility of looking at a second budget FY 25 with the position in it so the Board of Directors could look at it side-by-side and make a decision.
