If you missed the meeting on Tuesday, let's clear up some budget misconceptions: 1) Coding of Expenses: We consolidated budget codes for clarity and flexibility, not to hide anything. 2) Reserves/Revenues: Like all districts, we use reserves prudently to balance budgets, crucial for managing uncertainties. 3) Building Occupancy: Our schools are not underutilized; visit https://www.smore.com/n/jurmab for more. #Transparency #BudgetClarity #WHe
