1 PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE BUDGET ADOPTION 2015-2016 RAMONA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT JUNE 11,2015 1

2 OPENING COMMENTS The 2015-2016 July 1 budget is the beginning of a journey which ends over a year from now. It starts with assumptions that can change throughout the year. Some examples of these assumptions are:  The final State of California budget adoption and changes from current law  The actual enrollment in August  The number of sections taught at the high school and the number of elementary classrooms needed  The dollars from school sites not spent in the 2014-2015 school year which need to be accounted for  The State certification of the LCFF formula  The actual cost of increases in health benefits Other assumptions may also change 2
