II. Finance - Financial Statement Review

A. Committee review of Previous Month's Financial Statements

Tuition check at $260K is in line with previous months and reflects enrollment of 208 students (vs 213 actual enrollment). We therefore expect a slight readjustment at the end of the year.

State allocations are 4% over budget reflecting a PPE increase.

Fundraising is lower than budget and last year as the pandemic has impacted live fundraising events upon which we traditionally rely. However, grant money is up and compensates for shortfalls.

MCCPS is waiting on details from $85K ESSER grant

Total expenses at 2/3rd of school year is within $30K of budget, despite unplanned costs (HVAC) and covid-19 expenses

B. Discuss preliminary 2021-2022 Budget

Budget needs to be approved no later than May 2021 (April 2021 would be great)

This budget is based on enrollment of 215 students (up from 210 in 2020 budget) and recently published PPE levels

The budget reflects the staffing plan to be presented by Peter Cohen at the March Board meeting
