When we talk about the district’s budget, we often focus on the general fund portion which accounts for more than $60 million each year. The general fund pays for most of the costs associated with educating students. However, the state also requires us to establish budgets for several other areas, including food service, community service (our Community Education program), debt service, and trust and agency.
State law carefully prescribes how we are to spend money in each fund and prevents us from shifting funds from one budget to another.
