Expenses Covered:

In referendum planning, the District used approximations such as a 6.5% total compensation increase for staffing in 2023-2024, $150,000 for utility and maintenance costs, $300,000 for technology, instructional, and building budget needs, $100,000 for transportation costs, $300,000 to address post-employment benefits, $700,000 to maintain employee to student supports, over $1 million to address potential future budget shortfalls due to increasing costs and the need for competitive wages, and $350,000 to be used for math/literacy staffing to assist students as well as a teacher for English language learners.

Referendum dollars received begin with the 2023-2024 school year. Currently, the MHEA and the District are negotiating the 2022-2023 contract, and faculty have already received an average 4.7% increase in spendable dollars for the 2022-2023 school year.
