We want to hear from you!


Community budget meeting at Murphy Elementary School, February 27.

March Public Feedback

March meetings Q and A Sheet
Answers to the questions you asked at the March 11-13 meetings

The district held a second round of public input meetings where staff reported back to the community on feedback received at budget meetings held in February (see below), and presented a budget solutions plan that incorporated this input. In small group discussions, community members provided further feedback by responding to three questions:

• What works about the plan?
• What needs to be improved or changed?
• What questions do you have?


February Public Feedback

In February the district held six community budget meetings in each of its high school areas to share information about the impact of the state fiscal crisis on WCCUSD schools, and to engage community members in the budget planning process for 2008-09. In small groups, participants discussed and gave input on three questions:

• What programs, services, or activities should the district never cut?
• What programs, services, or activities should the district consider for reductions?
• How can the district lessen the impact of the state budget reductions, and is a parcel tax one way to do this?

The district collected and summarized the resulting input from the more than 600 people who attended the six meetings.
