Revised 2019-2020 budget

Attempting to address shortage from loss of income from:
  • Spotlight Afterschool Program
  • Venue Rental
  • Annual School Fundraisers

Current Budget Decisions
 
  • Considering how to make up shortage from current years deficit considering furlough options. 
  • Determined to move forward with timesheet only employees whom are not clocking in, will no be supported with pay (as no hours logged) and will need to seek unemployment options. 

 
S. Wiggin made a motion to In light of expected revenue shortfall for the remainder of the current school year, we move to direct Principal Burgess to use option B on the presented 2020 Salary Reduction Options spreadsheet. This will furlough non-classroom support staff through the end of the closure resulting from Governor Jared Polis's Executive Orders suspending in person learning at public schools. The Board reserves the right to amend or update this furlough as circumstances dictate.
