Scottsdale district weighs higher special education budget
Scottsdale school officials plan to ask the School Board to approve large increases for 1975-76 special education programs and support services to secure teachers and staff. The proposal would raise regular program funding from 1.18 million to 1.82 million and the support budget from 457,221 to 665,222, adding dozens of positions. If funded, mandates and state funding gaps could still leave Scottsdale short up to 300,000 depending on legislative appropriations, which range from 16.6 to 29.2 million overall.
