When released at this Monday's regular meeting, interim superintendent Dr. Charles Wilson said his draft budget will reflect the direction set by the Board of Education in discussions earlier this year “to develop a budget that preserves program and class size and is within the tax cap.”

Board members will start the morning with an overview of the budget and proposed tax levy changes before delving into instruction categories. Time for public comment on those topics is scheduled from 11:30 to noon.
