Tuesday Night features a 6 PM Public Session Budget Workshop

The Peru Central Board of Education will gather Tuesday, March 27th at 6 PM in the community room for their sixth public session budget workshop, according to A. Paul Scott, Interim Superintendent of Schools at Peru Central. At its budget workshop the school board will:

A. Receive at the meeting a March 27th packet of updates regarding statewide budget development, related New York State Education Department and Legislative topics, the March 2012 NYSED Fiscal Accountability Report, forecasted 2012-2013 school year student enrollment and last week’s budget development workshop #5.

B.  Receive the revised set of six Budget Advisory Committee recommendations that reflect the Board’s recent outreach to our bordering school districts to further expand partnerships, as was discussed between the Board and its Budget Advisory Committee at the fifth budget workshop of March 20th.

C. Receive and consider the March 2012 revised second edition preliminary draft cost reductions list for July 1, 2012 forward, in response to continued scarcity of state aid revenues and in response to the first year of the state-mandated property tax cap threshold, July 1st forward.

Prior to adjourning Tuesday night, the Board is slated to go into executive session for a special meeting exclusively focused on the performance history of particular individuals currently under consideration for successor Superintendent of Schools.
