District Faces Annual Deficits After 2015 16 Surplus
Stillwaggon warns the surplus is a one time event and predicts a $1 million deficit next year. School officials have warned of ongoing annual deficits of $1 million or more due to higher state contributions to the Employees Retirement System. Deficits will be covered from the district fund balance of $5,893,050 with the 2015 16 surplus included, but using the balance could exhaust it in a few years, leaving no emergency funds.
