Basis for Budgets Individual school budgets are based on: Type and size of school Number of years experience of the TAG coordinator Extended Responsibility with Fringe Whether the school has an AP We first determine the “Type” of school - whether a school is Elementary, Middle, or High School before determining allocations.  Then, the “Size” comes into play for Elementary Schools.
