SHERBURNE – The Sherburne-Earlville School district budget for the 2010/2011 school year will be presented at a board of education meeting at 6:30 this evening in the middle/high school auditorium.
The $28,975,880 million budget represents a 3.73 percent increase from the prior year and a 1.99 percent tax hike. It reflects a loss of up to seven staff members, including four teachers who will retire and not be replaced.
The budget saves a total of $370,180 in salary reductions and $66,000 in benefits. Ongoing administrative restructuring discussions led to replacing the district’s instructional technology department administrator, Todd Griffin, with a teacher, and moving Griffin into retiring district’s Assistant Superintendent Thomas Strain’s position, but at a lower salary.
