1. Sample 2010-11 School District Budget Projections

2. CTBA – State Deficit Problems

3. State of the State Illinois is estimated to be $13B in debt Federal Funds via ARRA replaced $922M of state funds per year for the last two years ISBE presented a flat budget for FY 2011 In order to fund this flat budget Illinois needs to generate $1B in additional revenue Current political climate may not allow for additional revenue generation

4. Governor Quinn’s Budget Proposal $2B across the board cut in state spending $1.3B from K-16 schools – 17% decrease GSA Foundation Level estimate $5,669 – Cannot fall below 2006 level of $5,500 due to ARRA maintenance of effort

5. Foundation Level History

9. Quinn Budget GSA cut by $613M – Foundation Level at $5,669 – Flat Grant Cut to $0 – GSA Hold Harmless -$16M (-100%) MCATS cut $402M – Early Childhood -$54M (-16%) – Extraordinary Sp Ed -$66M (-20%) – Reading Improvement -$36M ( -53%) – Regular Transportation -$65M (-19%) – Textbook Loans -$40M (-100%) – Billingual Education -$20M (-30%)

10. Illinois Payments to Districts Illinois failed to make two payments for Mandated Categorical Grants for FY 2009. These were made in summer 2009 So far this year the state has made only one MCAT payment It is anybody’s guess if they will make another one or more State is behind 120 days in paying its bills

11. State of the District Put in here what you think of your district’s budget in three bullet points or less Example – Overall revenue is down 17% – Recommend holding line on all spending and RIF at least three certified and three non-certified positions – Will deficit spend for FY 2011 and fund balances will decrease by 50%

19. Three Scenarios Scenario 1 – GSA @ $5,669 – No Cuts – Freeze salaries – Deficit spend by $800,000 – Fund Balance from $1.0M to $200,000 Scenario 2 – GSA @ $5,669 – Cut 3 teachers, 3 SSP, 1 administrator – Freeze salaries – Deficit by $500,000 – Fund Balance from $1.0M to $500,000

20. Scenario 3 – GSA @ $5,500 – Cut 3 teachers, 3 SSP, 1 administrator – Freeze salaries – Deficit spend by $1.2M thus need to borrow $200,000 and spend all reserves
