  D. 2017-2018 Budget
   

Current Surplus of ~ 5K assumes a 1.5% increase to state revenue. Cory advises that in the past 5 years, charters typically saw 1-2% increase each year. Budget shown includes maximum 3% match to 401K.

If state revenue remains static (16-17 ADM was $2,327,032.00) AND keeping 401K at 2% match, budget will show a ~7K deficit. This could be accounted for with an increase to grade level enrollment.
