FY24 Q2 Financials

T. DeLoach reviewed the Q2 Financials.

C. Holley asked if there were any restrictions. E. Darrow responded that she believes that the tuition funds are not restricted, but C. Fisher can provide a final answer. 

P. Ditchfield asked if the above tuition changes would be consistent year to year. T. DeLoach responded that no, this is a number that changes year over year. However, C. Fisher does not include above foundation rates in her budget process to ensure that Alma's budget is sound. 

P. Ditchfield asked about savings in contracted service providers. T. DeLoach responded that last year Alma did signifiant work to bring contracted services in house rather than paying for more expensive contractors.
