The PTO income is projected at $17,000 and will come from Quality car wash sale, Fork It Over, and Color Run.
Projected expenses of $17,000 include:
- Adding significantly to staff appreciation and teacher grants for supplies.
- Adding a field trip scholarship, inspirational speaker, and enrichment funds.
- Field trip flat rate per student amount is staying the same.
- In the process of spending last year technology budget on the purchase of 35 laptops for the students to use as teachers feel the Roosevelt computer lab scheduling is difficult. Teachers will evaluate if more laptops are desired.
Budget was voted on and approved.
