Future Considerations Textbook adoptions and technology acquisitions will need to be funded in the future for BPS to provide quality educational programs Staff compensation packages will need to be considered in order maintain competiveness within the metro area Facility needs will continue to require a significant dollar commitment Efforts to look for efficiencies must continue so we can make the best use of every dollar Talk with Nebraska legislators, at the state and federal levels, to ensure that adequate funding is provided to meet the needs of our students
