Budget -- First Snapshot

Here's some of what came out at the Budget Workshop last evening. I'll post more later.

Total budget up $450,000 (approximately).

Local assessments (total) up $154, 460 (7.03%), with individual towns seeing increases from 4.04% (Exeter) to 18.68% (Ripley).

Four ed tech positions being cut, two teacher positions added.

Without $358,000 reimbursement from the State for architect's (and other) fees associated with the new school project, the budget would have been that much more difficult.

Much more data later!
