Budget & Finance
The school budget is the biggest investment the community collectively makes with its tax dollars. District leaders work to make the most effective use of resources to benefit students, to develop and manage the budget in a responsible and transparent manner and to be accountable to taxpayers.
Each spring, the Board of Education adopts a budget for the coming school year that the community then votes upon. New York state has designated the third Tuesday in May as the date for all public school district budget votes.
