Parkview School District Mill Rate • The mill rate is a number used to equate the amount of taxes that will be assessed on a property that has a certain valuation. • For example, a mill rate of $10.12 would equal a tax levy of $1,012 on a house valued at $100,000. • An increase or decrease of the mill rate could vary due to changes in property values. • It is important to remember that the mill rate is an average for multiple municipalities and an individual’s actual mill rate could vary. 13
Parkview School District Enrollment FTE • Enrollment FTE (Full-Time Equivalency) is not a head count, but a calculation based on the September counts, summer school enrollment and resident additions and subtractions. • The Parkview School District is currently experiencing declining enrollment, which has had an adverse affect on the revenue limit and the amount of state general aid the District receives. 14
Parkview School DistrictOpen Enrollment • In addition to declining enrollment, the Parkview School District also has more students enrolling out of the District than enrolling in through open enrollment. • When a student who lives in a district decides to attend another district, the resident district must pay the other district open enrollment tuition for the student. • Open enrollment tuition per student was $6,335 for 2012-2013 and will be $6,485 for 2013-2014. • Estimating open enrollment numbers is difficult before the September count due to many different factors. 16
Parkview School District General Fund Revenue • It is projected that 94.07% of General Fund (Fund 10) revenue will come from state aid (57.30%) and local property taxes (36.77%). • The other sources of revenue include open enrollment tuition, district fees, and federal grants. 17
Parkview School District General Fund Expenses • It is projected that 66.86% of general fund expenses will be from salaries and benefits for the General Fund (Fund 10). • Purchased services include expenses for services to the District, dues and fees, insurance and open enrollment tuition. • Other expenses include lease payments and fund transfers. 18

Parkview School District Fund Balance • Fund balance is not the same as a cash account, it is a combination of assets and liabilities. • The actual cash in the bank is usually a lot lower during the year than the fund balance. • If the fund balance drops below $2,000,000, the Parkview School District may need to short-term borrow to cover expenses before revenues come in. • The fund balance % is the fund balance amount divided by expenses. 21
