Opening Comments • Budget problems for both 2008/09 and 2009/10 never seem to stop mounting • State revenues continue to decline • Voters didn’t support solutions that weren’t solutions • Legislators are far behind the problem curve • For now we are building a budget based on the State adopted budgets • In addition, we have made adjustments to reflect the Governor’s May revision proposals • Using the County directed guidelines • We have attempted to minimize the additional reduction of staff • Planning will continue 1
Cash Flow Problems A repeat of last year and more 2
Review of May 5, Board Approved Strategy (Option “A”) • Spends Current Resources on Current Students now: • Uses greatest amount of flexibility • Potentially requires a greater level of future cuts • Provides for greater administrative authority to deal with daily operational needs of the District • Dealt with structural balance now, but will not help deal with additional State reductions • Retains Flexibility for Use of Federal Stimulus Resources • Maintains reserves at the 3% levels required by the State • Requires budget adjustments of $16,512,349 3
Current Budget Reductions B. Full Use of Tier III Reductions Description FTE Amount I. Updated “Option A” A. Reduce Carryover Reserves $1,309,204 180.03 11,496,777 C. Partial Use of Tier II Reductions 50.95 3,706,368 D. Total Adjustments 230.98 $16,512,349 *See Appendix for Details 4
Summary of Changes • We have had to adjust to an ever increasing State fiscal crisis and the uncertainty surrounding the Federal dollars • From the original recommendations submitted to the Board for consideration, a number of changes have been made to the reduction plans • Those changes include: • Adjusting class sizes for 9-12 • Support for Senior Projects • Retaining Counselors & Library Assistants • Special Education Staffing • Other support staffing 5

How Can We Balance? • Declare Federal Stabilization Resources • Sweep State Tier 3 Programs • Reduce reserves further * • Additional program reductions • Deeper State Tier 3 programs reductions with the hope that Federal Categorical Stabilization resources will become available to backfill (re-instate) these cuts • Additional reductions previously identified (Option B) • Additional reductions previously identified (Option C) * District will still maintain required 3% General Reserves. 9
What Can’t We Do to Balance? • Declare any additional Federal Title I resources until rules and funding levels have been clearly defined • Declare additional Federal Individual with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) resources until State has done their homework and notified the District of rules and funding levels 10

Recommendations • Staff recognizes the Governor’s proposal to reduce Revenue Limit by more than $13M between this year and next • To close this gap staff recommends: • Declaring all of the “On-Time” Federal Stabilization resources • This would include reversing previous recommended use of these resources (see appendix for details) • Reduce the remaining reserves as outlined in this report (see appendix for details) • Reduce Teacher staffing by 1.00 FTE at both continuation sites and Henderson CDS • Additional Sweeping of State Tier 3 categorical resources (see appendix for details) • Plan on the use of Federal Categorical stimulus resources as they become available (see appendix for details) • Approval of Co-Curricular funding option. 16
