Budget Overview2004-2005 PARKROSE SCHOOL DISTRICT MARY LARSON DIRECTOR OF BUSINESS SERVICES MICHAEL TAYLOR SUPERINTENDENT JANUARY 26, 2004
Enrollment Projections • Schools are funded largely by the State of Oregon based on student enrollment or weighted Average Daily Membership (ADMw) • That is the sum of resident students plus adjustments for special education, ELL and other factors
Enrollment Projections • It appears that our enrollment this year is flat compared to 2002-2003 • 02-03 was 3576 (January 2003) • 03-04 is 3578 (January 2004) • 04-05 projected to be flat
Flat Enrollment Growth • Since funding is based on the number of students, flat or declining enrollment gives no growth for revenues • Declining enrollments result with less revenues • There is a one-year “hold harmless”
Review of 03-04 Budget • The Parkrose Adopted budget is based on $5.05 billion Governor's budget for 03-04 • The Adopted budget included $3,457,500 from the Multnomah County Income Tax
Multnomah County I-tax • Multnomah County Personal Income Tax, passed by voters on May 20, 2003 • Personal income tax of 1.25% imposed effective January 1, 2003 on residents of Multnomah County • $863 per student county wide
Multnomah County I-tax • I-tax will be reduced if State funding levels exceed $4.8 billion • County officials have reduced the original estimates of the amount to be received from the I-tax • Parkrose’s estimated revenue was reduced from $3.4 million to $2.6 million • $863 versus $618 per student county wide
Multnomah County I-taxUsed For • Restore staffing in the schools – a total of 19.2 FTE • Classroom sizes average 26:1 elementary • Outdoor School reinstated • Added support staff for English Language Learners, technology and elective classes • Replaced outdated math textbooks
Multnomah County I-taxUsed For • Textbook adoption cycle current • Technology replacement funded • Elementary Custodial positions reinstated • Building sustainability for three years and stretching I-tax to four years
State Funding Review • Legislature appropriated $5.2 billion for K-12 schools for 2003-2005 with another $100 million possible if revenue targets are met • Parkrose’s budget is based on $5.05 billion for 03-04 (plus I-tax dollars) • I-tax will be reduced if state funding exceeds $4.8 billion
State Funding Review • Imposed a three-year tax increase package to fund the State budget. • A special election is scheduled for February 3, 2004 on whether to repeal the tax increase package
State Funding Review • Repeal of the State tax measures reduces SSF funding by $503 per ADMw or $2.2 million less for Parkrose • All of this funding reduction would occur in the 2004-2005 budget year
Potential Revenue Shortfall • Revenue Shortfall Causes • Ending fund balance decline • If State tax increase is repealed - $2.2 Million • County collections for I-tax
Outlook for 2004-2005 • If the tax increase is repealed, we will likely face a revenue shortfall in the range of $1.0 million to $1.5 million • Assumes discretionary and “one-time” spending is cut from county tax funding • Assumes halt of PERS litigation reserves • The reductions of $1.0 million to $1.5 million would need to be made after the above cuts
Summary • If the State tax increase is upheld, Parkrose can continue with our plan for use of the county tax revenue • The District needs to carefully monitor enrollment trends and be prepared to deal with the implications of declining enrollments
Summary • The State tax election will be very important to Parkrose. A $1.0 million budget reduction cannot be absorbed by the county income tax and fund balance • Our challenge will be to maintain current service levels if the tax is repealed
Summary • I-tax can make up some of the shortfall but will not fund all the state loss • REMEMBER TO VOTE
