Rock Hill Schools Expecting 2009-10 Funding to be at 1999 Levels

Bill Mabry will present 2009-10 revenue projections at the April 6 Rock Hill School Board work session. Those projections will show state student funding to be $1,929 per student - or about what the funding was in 1999. Total revenue is expected to be $118 million which is $8.5 million less than the 2008-09 budget. Since 85% of the budget is in salaries, there will be some serious employee reductions in addition to a dip in the reserve funds.
The other main item on the agenda is a discussion on school balance. The administration is asking the board for feedback in the following areas; school capacity; proximity to school; free & reduced lunch; State test scores; Household income; and ethnic background.
The agenda is presented below
