Agenda Item Summary:
|
|
The School Board Budget Advisory Committee (BAC) applauds the efforts ACPS staff take each year to plan its annual Community Budget Forum. The Community Budget Forum provides critical information to the community about the budget process and key priorities, as well as enables community members to ask pertinent questions about those items. We are excited about the division’s continued community engagement efforts regarding the budget and, as community representatives, would like to see even more community input. Beyond the recommendations provided below, we do encourage the School Board and division staff to reference our prior communications memo, as we believe many of the suggestions in that document are pertinent to this discussion as well. |
