Cutting the Budget!
I'm one of about 40 people signed up to help the Superintendent of Topeka Public Schools, Dr. Kevin Singer, figure out how to cut $5,000,000 from the district's budget.
There are principals, teachers, staff, parents, clergy, students and business people here. It is an eclectic group of stakeholders.
We have a workbook that outlines what all the general fund programs are in the district and some possibilities of cuts. Each area of the schools makes a ten minute presentation about their program.
We will eventually go online to choose what we'd drop and what we'd keep.
It is a tremendous program for getting feedback.
