I think with all these important goals reached, Timmy should max out with a whopper of an increase. That doesn't include his stellar work with the high school renovation bonus that five others received this year. Since he is so transfixed with the construction, I think Timmy deserves at least a $5,000 bonus.

Not the taxpayers, just the school community.

ReplyDelete"Mt. Lebanon School District looks ahead to budget quandary
By Nick Lewandowski
The Mt. Lebanon school board turned its attention to the 2013-2014 budget at the Feb. 11 discussion meeting. It reviewed a preliminary budget of more than $84million, as well as strategies for cost savings in a year likely to bring more cuts to programming. Also on the agenda was discussion of the high school rifle range, which may be left out of the district’s high school renovation project.
Next week, the board will vote on a preliminary budget of $84,469,784, in order to preserve its right to apply for exceptions to the index limitation on real estate taxes for the 2013-2014 school year. While the preliminary figure is a rough number, school board president Elaine Cappucci emphasized that this year’s budget would mean more difficult decisions on spending cuts.
“Even if we apply for all the exceptions to the index, we would be looking at cuts,” she said. “The superintendent and his staff will evaluate the possibilities and return with a list, as well as an assessment of impact on programming.”
She highlighted several areas the district could realize savings: allowing positions left empty by retirements to go unfilled, sharing some staff between buildings, eliminating a teacher in-service day and possibly modifying the district’s elementary foreign language program.
“Closing a school is an option we should at least look at,” Cappucci concluded.
The budget shortfall the district faces is driven primarily by a decrease in state funding and rising pension and healthcare costs. A more exact amount will emerge in the spring, once the district has more detailed information on retirements, health care, staffing and student course selections. The final state budget will also have a major impact on the district’s fiscal position."
