2026–27 Revenue Neutral Rate & Budget Hearings
On August 25, 2026, the Board of Education held a public hearing to receive taxpayer comments on the District’s intention to exceed the Revenue Neutral Rate (RNR). After public comment and during the hearing, the Board voted to approve a resolution to exceed the RNR.
The Board also held the originally scheduled annual budget hearing on August 25, 2026. Because the District had revised its proposed budget and issued a second public notice, the Board did not adopt the budget at that hearing.
On September 8, 2026, the Board held a public hearing on the revised proposed 2026–2027 budget. Following the hearing, the Board voted to approve the budget.
All corresponding budget documents are available on the Accountability Reports/Budget Documents page.
