Overview: In a recent Southampton School Committee meeting, members made significant revisions to the school budget, emphasizing transparency and accountability. The committee discussed various budgetary concerns, including a revised total operating budget, the status of funding from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), and vocational tuition adjustments. Notably, the committee recommended approving a lowered operating budget of $6,562,261, which is a 4.45% increase from the previous year. This revision came after removing anticipated ARPA funds, which are not yet approved, and making adjustments based on accurate salary figures and updated spending projections.
