Back to the budget maze! We made it around the first roadblock with a clear picture of the tax rate. But what is included in the FY25 budget? Early literacy is key to long-term academic success. Read more about the Structured Literacy program at www.sbschools.net/budgetfy25.
Every week, we'll find our way through the budget maze! Today's roadblock? Understanding the tax increase. VT legislation and SB's growing housing market mean significant cuts won't bring it down by that much. Learn about Act 127 and CLA at www.sbschools.net/budgetfy25.
Town Meeting Day is 5 weeks away! Have you registered to vote or requested your ballot? Have you read up on what is in the district's FY25 budget and the factors that contributed? You can do all of that at www.sbschools.net/budgetfy25
