Board takeaways for June: (1) The General Fund balance of $398K reflects the normal late-spring low point — payroll runs steadily while the final state apportionment payments arrive in July and August. (2) Special Education (128.3%) and Career & Technical Education (130.7%) programs have exceeded annual budget; a budget extension or year-end review is warranted. (3) Debt Service is fully funded — both the $1.795M matured bond payment and $1.86M interest were paid at 100%. (4) Capital Projects holds $1.6M, largely restricted impact fees ($1.24M) and bond proceeds ($362K).

Context for the board: The June low balance is a timing pattern, not a structural deficit — local tax collections are 99% complete while two months of state apportionment (roughly $4.5M of state general purpose alone) remain to be received in July and August. The items to watch are Special Ed and CTE, both tracking well over their annual appropriations, which will need to be addressed before year-end close.

Year-over-year story for the board: The district is in measurably better shape than it was at this point last year. Every fund's June balance improved, the General Fund's seasonal low more than doubled ($182K → $398K), and the unassigned balance swung from negative ($435,782) to positive ($61,135) — a $497K improvement. The recurring theme both years is Special Ed and CTE exceeding their appropriations: CTE improved sharply (169% → 131%) while Special Ed moved the wrong direction (120% → 128%), pointing to where next year's budget assumptions need the most attention. Sources: June 2025 and June 2026 Budget Status Reports.
