Message from School Board President Nicki Hemby:
Our administration, staff, budget committee, as well as entire board of education has worked very hard to put out a responsible budget this year and I know the community will not only recognize that, but support it.
We are presenting a roll over budget, which I believe is extremely fiscally responsible. With voter approval there will be no staff reductions and we will be able to make the necessary upgrades we are in desperate need of.
