SBSD Enrollment & Budget Study



SBSD Study:Enrollment Increase & Budget Constraints - Impact on the 26-27 School Year

SBSD_Study  We are assessing the current Elementary School K-5 Configuration. What this means is that we will be reviewing the academic program, financial aspects and expected incoming enrollment that will impact space and school capacities, in order for us todetermine if our current K-5 school configuration is the best option in delivering the bestprogram possible. With over 2,500 new homes being built and many already under constructionin our town, it gives us the opportunity to take an in-depth look at what is possible, what isfiscally responsible, and ultimately what is best for our students and the community.

SBSD_Study The reason we are doing this stems from enrollment and budget challenges, but we can’t sacrifice what’s good for kids. If we can do better for cheaper, that’s the premise.
