Department Budgets

Budget spreadsheet will be ready for you at the Aug. 29th 1-2 p.m. Department Head Meeting. These are the key factors:

1. District reduced supply budgets by 10% this year.

2. Positive or negative carryovers from the 2004-05 were applied.

3. Our actual printing budget was $1387.73 over the school printing budget and may go a little higher since we have all of the August printing before the end of the budget year. This deficit was proportionally deducted from all department budgets. Costs per department ranged from $83 to $527.

4. The library budget is included in a separate school budget and we had two budgets that just were not within minimal needs so I applied the $2153.30 to the Science and Exploratory budget.

5. I combined the SS and Eng. budgets since they operate as one department which will make it easer to read and interpret district budget reports

6. Only 50% of the department budget should be allocated before Oct. 15th so we can determine final student counts.
