Create a Funding Model for Success: How Charter Schools Can Survive and Thriv...Charter School Capital
Budget cuts and deferrals are coming, and it's time for us to address them in the 2020-21 budget. We all know that expense cuts alone likely will not solve these shortfalls. Cutting programs and teachers could cut the heart and soul out of your schools. Charter schools have shown up well during this crisis. How might we turn this time into a unique opportunity for charter schools to thrive?
What this webinar to learn:
- What deferrals looked like during the Great Recession
- The different tracks charter schools can take in getting through deferrals and cuts
- How to access a funding model to survive and thrive

Pay-for-Success Initiatives for Early Childhood Programsmdanielsfirstfocus
Evidence-based early childhood programs, such as home visiting and high-quality preschool, hold enormous promise to improve the early health, education, and development of at-risk children, helping them and their parents break the cycle of intergenerational poverty. Although Congress has increased investments in early childhood programs, these services reach only a fraction of the low-income children and families who could benefit from them. Pay-for-success initiatives, in which the government pays for set outcomes rather than social services, is quickly becoming a mechanism for local and state governments to finance evidence-based early childhood services for children and families. This webinar describes the basic concepts of pay-for-success initiatives and explores the goals, components, and status of three pay-for-success projects currently in development and in operation involving preschool and home visiting programs.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The preparation of the annual budget is a substantial leadership responsibility. Recent trends in the country’s business community and
the school community suggest that quality is achieved through the involvement of many persons.
The development of the proposed 2014-2015 School District budget is consistent with the trends aiming toward quality. The District
administrators, building administrators, teachers, staff, parents, and indirectly students, all had input into the development of the
budget. All are to be commended.
Collaboration requires leadership. Keeping people included and focused upon a common mission requires greater leadership and
time. The people whose names appear below provided the leadership that made the development of the proposed budget possible.

Dr. Angela White
RE:
Superintendent’s Proposed School District Budget:
2014-2015 School Year
Superintendent of Schools
Assistant Superintendent for Business
Assistant Superintendent for
Curriculum and Instruction
INTRODUCTION
In the Ossining School District, we are dedicated to ensuring that all students are
educated well. Our goal is to prepare our students to be successful in whatever they
choose to do after graduating from Ossining High School. The budget serves as a “means
to an end,” providing the resources necessary to ensure that we can and will achieve that
goal. Yet, at the same time, we must understand and respond to the fiscal needs of our
community.
This year’s budget focuses on three areas:
Educational Solvency: Ensuring that we provide educational programs that meet
the needs and interests of our students.
Security: Enhancing security equipment throughout our schools to ensure the
safety of our students.
Space: Addressing the need for adequate instructional space across the district.
BUDGET PROCESS
The budget process began with a meeting of our Administrative Team to review the
effectiveness of our existing programs. At the same time, members of the Citizen’s
Budget Advisory Committee have been lobbying the state on the District’s need for
additional Foundation Aid. These efforts have included a community forum, letters,
meetings with legislators and numerous trips to Albany. We also spoke at the recent state
Budget Hearing. For additional information related to Foundation Aid please click here.
4. Our approach to the budget has been both transparent and collaborative. We have
worked hard to ensure that the budget provides programs that meet the needs of every
child in our District and help to avoid educational insolvency.
GOALS OF OUR BUDGET DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
It has been noted in our presentations that we had the following goals in mind during the
development of this budget.
Avoid educational insolvency by continuing advocacy efforts to increase the
Foundation Aid that Ossining is legally entitled to receive, which is projected to
be an additional $7M in 2014-15.
Continue to maintain transparency through surveys, informational meetings, and
Community Budget Advisory Committee efforts.
Continue to evaluate opportunities for sustainable budget savings and slowing
expenditure growth.
AREAS OF FOCUS: EDUCATIONAL SOLVENCY, SECURITY AND SPACE
Educational Solvency:
This budget reflects the continuation of our electives at Ossining High School, the
Science Research Program, after school programs at AMD and programs in the arts and
athletics. Based on our February 26th Board of Education meeting and survey results, we
know our community values teacher to student ratio. We have been experiencing
increases in enrollment. Yet, we have made every effort to ensure that we address the
need for instructional staff in grades PreK-12. Particular emphasis has been made to
address class size at AMD. This budget also seeks to address the needs in Special
Education and English as a Second Language classes.
We have dissected every non-instructional area in search of efficiency, economies of
scale, and expense reductions wherever possible to preserve as many programs for as
long as possible. We successfully reversed the trajectory of health costs as well as
administrative and transportation expenses growth back to 2009 levels. These cuts have
resulted in over $6.3 million in the past year alone. Additional savings/cost avoidance
measures include the following:
Identified $4.6 million in capital improvements with no budget impact through an
Energy Performance Contract (EPC).
Received $2.5 million in competitive grants.
Negotiated Triborough for teacher and administrator contracts.
Saved $1.2 million over 12 years by re-financing bonds.
Throughout the process, we carefully considered the impact that the decisions would
have on our students. Our goal is to ensure that the needs of our students are met and that
2
5. we take into account the values of our community. The items in this memo reflect the
current status of state aid. Again, our focus is to remain educationally solvent.
Safety And Space
The Administration and Board of Education recognize the importance of budgeting for
building maintenance and understand the long-term effects of not supporting funds for
capital projects. While the capital bond project approved last year by our community will
help to provide significant improvements to our facilities, it does not meet all of the
District's needs. As a result, the District continues to recommend the funding of the
transfer-to-capital budget line to ensure that we continue to address some of our on-going
capital improvements not included in the capital bond. Additionally, one of the Board’s
goals is to address future space needs in our elementary schools. The 2014-15 Budget
reflects these anticipated needs.
Student safety continues to be a district priority. As such, the 2014-15 budget contains
funds for additional cameras and an improved surveillance system that will help
emergency response efforts.
Savings from closing capital projects completed below budget as well as remaining funds
from the self-insured health and long-term disability plans no longer needed since the
District has moved to predictable premium based plans are being used as appropriated
fund balance. These savings and remaining funds will be used to cover non-recurring
expenses to avoid a cliff in the following year when the funds are no longer available.
New, recurring expenses like the lease for storage and administrative space will have no
impact on the tax levy. Lease expenses will be offset with expense reductions in health,
Xerox Copier equipment, fuel oil, and bond re-financing.
OTHER AREAS OF INTEREST
Transportation
As part of the budget, we will be asking our community to consider voting on decreasing
the transportation mileage limits for Claremont School. We are recommending that we
decrease the limits to .5 miles for students in grade 4. Below you find details related to
the proposal.
Grade Level
Grade 3
Grade 4
Current Mileage Limit
½ mile
1 mile
Proposed Mileage Limit

½ mile
This change will not impact the District budget. Yet, our community must vote to make
the change. This change will be put to the voters by way of a separate proposition at the
annual election and meeting on May 20th.

6. REVENUES
The information below provides the best projections available at the time of this writing.
Modifications to revenue projections will be provided as they become available.
State Aid
On January 22, 2013, Governor Andrew Cuomo released his proposed budget to the
legislators which included projected state aid to school districts. Under the Governor’s
proposal, the Ossining School District would see an increase of approximately $862,000
in state aid when compared to 2013-2014 budget.
Other Revenue Sources
There are other limited revenue sources that comprise the total revenue to support the
budget. The two major areas are composed of state aid and property taxes. At this time,
the District anticipates that it will realize approximately $20,271,736 in revenues other
than property taxes and appropriation of Fund Balance for the 2014-2015 school year.
This compares with $16,425,000 which the District had anticipated last year at this time
for the current 2013-2014 school year. We will continue to monitor revenue projections
and will adjust accordingly, prior to setting the tax warrant.
Proposed Budget and Tax Levy
Our 2014-2015 proposed budget is below the District Tax Levy Limit or Cap. The
proposed budget reflects a budget-to-budget increase of 2.86% or a dollar value of
$3,160,790. Consideration will be given to the amount of Fund Balance that will be
allocated to offset property taxes. Given the anticipated revenues as referenced above of
$20,271,736 and an appropriation of Fund Balance and the Retirement Contribution
Reserve Fund in the amount of $2,890,871, the District projects an estimated tax levy of
$93,322,506 which represents a tax levy increase of $1,865,554 or 2.04%, which is below
the District Tax Levy Limit or Cap calculated to be 2.06% for the 2014-2015 school year.
Fund Balance
Through extremely careful planning during the 2013-2014 school year, strategic
exercising of cost saving efficiencies, and deferring various projects, it is anticipated that
the District will be able to realize an authorized Fund Balance of four percent (4%). This
Fund Balance is advantageous within the context of a conservative budget. Given the
potential for emergencies and unexpected situations, maintaining a Fund Balance is quite
important.

7. Tax Rates
As always, at this time of year there are far too many unknown variables and factors
relating to state aid to project a firm tax rate. Presently, the Governor’s State Aid
Executive Proposal has been of concern for the Ossining School District as well as all
districts throughout New York State. We are aggressively reaching out to legislators to
address this issue relative to the State Budget. We do expect to project estimated tax
rates soon.
It is important to note that there are still outstanding tax certiorari claims that have not
been settled. Tax certiorari claims may enable taxpayers to reduce the assessments on
their properties. Until such time as the tax rolls are set in August, the impact upon the
final tax rate can not be determined.
The potential assessment value decreases will have an impact on the tax rate within the
three towns of the Ossining School District. Equalization rate changes, determined by
the New York State Office of Real Property Services [ORPS], also will affect
apportionment of the school tax levy causing a potential shift in each share of the levy.
We provide this information in order to promote greater understanding of the tax rate
issues that are well beyond the control of the District.
SUMMARY
As stated previously, our budgetary goal was to ensure that we maintain quality programs
for the students we serve in the Ossining School District. We worked to addressed three
areas: educational solvency, safety and space. Furthermore, we continue to support the
following areas: academics, athletics, and cultural arts. Yet, the budget still remains
below the Tax Levy Cap.
We encourage our community to stay informed throughout the process. Below are a few
ways that you can stay connected:
In conclusion, we want to thank everyone who helped to develop the Superintendent’s
Proposed Budget.
