Governor’s Proposed FY20 Budget

Reduces Education Foundation Funding by 24% - $269.4 million
Removes one-time $20 million from FY19, $30 million from FY20
Removes debt reimbursement to municipalities for school projects

What does this mean for KGBSD???

Reduction of $6.4 million from state foundation funding
Removes one-time funds of $387,274 for FY19, $674,024 for FY20
Removes $2.36 million in school debt funds for capital projects

SLIDE 16

POTENTIAL IMPACTS

$7+ million in cuts =

70-80 Teaching Positions
ALL Classified Staff – Paraprofessionals, Building Secretaries, Cooks,

Custodians, Administrative Assistants, and other Support Staff

ALL Non-Personnel Expenditures + an additional $2.7 million in cuts

This would result in a dramatic and potentially catastrophic restructuring of the public education system in Ketchikan.
