Enrollment numbers increase
Enrollment numbers near budget target
October’s enrollment numbers are stronger than anticipated. The district gained 27 students this month so it is only three students below budget projections, according to a report last night from Business Operations Director Ted Cohan.
Cohan said Running Start and Greenways Online Learning program enrollment numbers accounted for the gains.
Fund balance remains strong
Cohan also reported the district is close to closing the books on the 2012-13 budget cycle. He said it appears the district will finish the year with a $6.5 million fund balance which meets the budget target.
Facility use agreement fees
Cohan said the district is reviewing its policy on Facilities Use by community groups. Currently the district is not collecting fees as required by board policy.
The district is considering enforcing this policy beginning next year. Cohan said the district could collect up to $50,000 in revenue to offset utilities and custodian fees.
