On September 12, 2022, the School Board adopted the budget for fiscal year 2022-2023. As the fiscal year progresses, we ask the

various factors including: increases or decreases in estimated revenues to more accurately reflect revenues, and increases or decreases
in appropriations to more accurately reflect estimated expenditures and/or better utilize funds for schools, departments, and projects.
These amendments facilitate district operations to occur in a positive manner.
These amendments properly reflect the estimated revenue and appropriations. The amendments show the estimated revenue and
appropriations for each fund and provide a description of the amendments.
