Two meetings for Peru Board of Education this week
Tuesday Night features a 6 PM Public Session Budget Workshop
The Peru Central Board of Education will gather Monday, March 19th at 4:50 PM in the district office conference room for a special meeting exclusively focused on a set of executive session interviews with particular first round candidates for successor Superintendent of Schools. No other Board action is slated for Monday’s meeting.
The Board will gather a second time next week on Tuesday, March 20th at 6 PM in the community room for their fifth public session budget workshop, according to A. Paul Scott, Interim Superintendent of Schools at Peru Central. The Board is expected to:
A. Engage with the school board’s budget advisory committee regarding a set of six collaboratively constructed recommendations that committee has for the Board to consider;
B. Continue its discussion regarding how to best reduce expenditures next school year by roughly $1M for July 1, 2012 forward, in response to continued scarcity of additional state aid revenues and the first year of the state-mandated property tax cap threshold.
C. Identify any particular areas the Board commissions the Interim Superintendent move ahead with, in regard to early notice to potentially impacted employees associated with preliminary cost reduction considerations.
Interim Superintendent Scott said each and every budget document outlined above is available via the home page of the Peru Central Web site now, and print copies will be available to members of the school community attending the workshop Tuesday night.
