[quote=Anonymous]Thank you for all of this information! It is reassuring that a final decision has not been made. I need to catch up on reading all of the budget emails/announcements. I completed the budget tool when it was available a while back. However, I have not been following the discussion these last few months. When my son came home upset, I thought I may have missed something. It is too bad kids think the centers are closing and are discussing this at school. My son came home and immediately asked if he had to switch schools. As soon as I reassured him, I posted here. Thanks again for your helpful responses!

[quote]On February 4, 2016, the School Board adopted the FY 2017 Advertised Budget that includes a requested increase in the county transfer of 6.7 percent.
 
The County Executive presented his FY 2017 Advertised Budget on February 16, 2016, which includes a school operating fund transfer increase of $54.75 million or 3.0 percent. The recommended transfer to the School Operating Fund results in a shortfall of $67.9 million as compared to FCPS' FY 2017 Advertised Budget. The County’s advertised budget recommends a 4 cent increase in the current real estate tax rate, which would increase the rate from $1.09 to $1.13 per $100 of assessed value.
 
On February 26, the School Board and County Board of Supervisors will have a joint budget work session to discuss both the County’s and FCPS’ advertised budgets and the impact of the state budget, as included in the conference reports from the House and Senate. During the work session, the presentation for the joint meeting will be shared with the School Board.[/quote][/quote][/quote]
