  11. Why is it difficult to cut this $ .5 Million? • We spend 84% on people, 16% on things (limited flexibility on things) • Largest percentage of budget is on teaching/support • Categorical funding (Title, LAP, Voc, Special ED, etc) • We have already been trimming costs for 8 years • State funding continues to be in lowest quartile of funding per student • Student Achievement – All means ALL

  19. Process Timeline/Cautions • Plan your work backward • Know your bargaining agreement dates • May 15 is a critical date for RIF notice • Lead each meeting yourself to keep information consistent • Use a data collection instrument to gather potential cut ideas from all in-district employee groups • If decisions will be made w/o considering employee preferences , do not ask for input. • Create a comparison chart to allow people to give input on what they would prefer • If you provide figures be sure work linear and always include the numbers since the beginning • Be cautious about what you share. Collect all data sheets from meetings until you plan to share more publicly. Information leaks and creates a vicious rumor mill. • Be cautious about gathering input from uninformed stake holders. They tend to make assumptions without all the facts.
