The cuts would begin in the 2013-2014 school year and come in the form of approximately 40 jobs through attrition.
The Parkway School Board is reviewing a proposal to cut approximately $4 million from the district's budget over the next two years, beginning with the 2013-2014 school school year. The district has said it needs to cut another $2-4 million, or approximately one to two percent of the district's overall operating budget, to restore its fund balance and prevent borrowing from reserves. "The revenues didn't come in where we thought they'd come in last year," Parkway's CFO Mark Stockwell explained. Last February, the board voted to cut up to $9.63 million over two years and ended up cutting just under $8 million from the 2012-2013 budget. The additional $4 million now being proposed would bring the total budget cuts to between $11 and $12 …

The board increased residential tax rates for the coming fiscal year by more than 34 cents per $100 in assessed valuation.
The Pattonville School Board raised property tax rates for the 2011-12 fiscal year. The Pattonville School District increased the tax rate for almost all property classes due to a 6-percent decrease in property values. An owner of a home valued at $200,000 would see an increase of about $132 as a result of the residential tax rate hike. The new tax rate will be $4.4245 per $100 assessed valuation across all property classes. (For a tax rate comparison of each class of property, see the chart above.) The rate is composed of the $3.9345 operating tax and the 49-cent, debt-service tax levy. Local revenue makes up 85 percent of the district’s budget, and most of that comes from property values. Pattonville’s new operating tax rate is 17.55 …

The Pattonville School Board met Sept. 13 to discuss a range of topics.
At Tuesday night’s Pattonville School Board meeting, Superintendent Mike Fulton said the school board is one of two finalists competing for an award through the state Outstanding Board of Education Program. There will be one winner for each of the five categories in the program. Pattonville is competing in the Parent and Community Relations category. Because the district spans more than three municipalities, Board Secretary Ron Kuschel said, the district had to make Pattonville its own community. “So what we’ve done is created a sense of Pattonville, a Pattonville community,” Kuschel said. “We work very hard and extensively with interaction with organizations in this community.” Kuschel said the board does this by talking to local …

I think that all the candidates were well qualified for the position, and the choices were tough. I hope that more members of the community take an interest in the welfare of the children and future adult citizens as Mrs. Adair has done. Congratulations, Mrs. Adair, for being a concerned, qualified candidate and I hope to see more from you in the future. more ›
