This document proposes the budget for Midsouth Elementary School for the 2021-2022 school year. Due to anticipated decreased revenue of $100,000 from COVID-19 and declining enrollment, the budget proposes reductions including cutting one teacher and one instructional aide position, decreasing supplies and purchased services, and increasing class sizes. The goals of critical thinking, character development, and student success remain central to the school's vision and mission despite the budget challenges.

BUDGET JUSTIFICATIONS
DESCRIPTION JUSTIFICATION
STAFFING Reduce staff by 1 teacher ($48,800) and 1
instructional aide ($25,000). Current student
enrollment is 600 students. Student/teacher ratio
15:1
PURCHASED SERVICES Reduce $5500 in purchased services. We will lose
the schoolwide subscription to BrainPOP. However,
we will maintain schoolwide access to IXL for
reading and math.

TRAVEL Reduce $500 in travel because professional


development will occur onsite.

SUPPPLIES & MATERIALS Reduce $2000 in supplies and materials. We have


an overflow of supplies since school buildings were
closed

SCHOOL INSTRUCTIONAL Reduce $1192 in school instructional supplies.


SUPPLIES Teachers will develop their own supplementary
instructional materials.
TACTICAL
CHALLENGES Challenges
& 1. Growing class sizes in electives
STRATEGIC 2. Increasing expense for substitute
PLANNING teachers
3. Reading intervention programs

Strategic Planning

Monthly review of school budget to:


 Identify overspending
 Provide accurate projections of financial needs
Quarterly review of student achievement data to:
 Identify need for additional student support and
resources
PRIORITIZED CHALLENGES RESULTING IN OPERATIONAL POLICIES &
PROCEDURES

Staffing Needs
 As a result of budget cuts, Midsouth will lose it’s reading intervention teacher and one instructional
aide. Reading intervention strategies will be incorporated into daily instruction. The school pass rate on
the reading SOL assessment over the last three years was 80-85%. The loss of the reading intervention
teacher could negatively impact student achievement. We will closely monitor achievement results next
school year and examine the need to re-fill this position based on the data.
 Our PE class size has increased which is causing concern among parents. If enrollment increases (post
pandemic), we will need one additional PE teacher. Student teacher ratio is 30:1(currently). Master
schedule will be reviewed to identify ways to reduce class size.
