JAMESTOWN – Jamestown Public School officials will be meeting tonight to discuss the 2014-2015 school budget, now that the state has finalized the amount of state aid the district is set to receive.
Last week, the district learned that the final state budget is providing an estimated $1.9 million more in additional revenue for the district, compared to what was in the governor’s initial budget proposal released in January. That brings the total amount of state aid for Jamestown to an estimated $48,000,000.
As a result of the final aid amount, the district is facing about a $600,000 budget gap. Tonight, school officials will discuss ways to close that gap. The meeting is open to the public and will begin at 6 p.m. in the school administration building on Martin Rd.
