9. In Summary
We need to cut at least $800,000
to bring in a budget of
approximately $20,500,000.
This budget amount is estimated to
be within the tax cap limit.

12. Other Potential Cuts
Cut all field trips except end of the year 4th,
8th and 12th grade celebrations.
Only have one modified team in soccer and

Look at implementing bus stops on the 5-125-
run.
13. Next Steps
We are within $100,000 of being within the
tax cap limit.
We have decided to wait and see if the aid
picture changes.
It is important that we contact our
legislators, there are links on our facebook
