Student support is more than one budget line.

Some people have asked why the “Teaching & Learning” line does not show the full cost of supporting students.

That line is important, but it is only one part of the picture.

Students are also supported through special education, counseling, health services, libraries, technology, transportation, athletics, clubs, music, art, and the staff who provide those services.

When these student-related areas are included, about 78% of the proposed budget supports teaching, learning, student services, student opportunities, transportation, and the staff who serve students.

The remaining portion of the budget supports the operations that make school possible, including buildings, utilities, maintenance, insurance, debt service, and districtwide operations.
