  2. Delaware was hit hard by the 2008 recession and recovery is lagging. As a result, the State has been forced to make deep cuts in many areas – including education.

  3.

  5. Growth is slowing Due to the recession, the enrollment growth that helped enable us to keep ahead of inflation and expand programs is slowing. Date # and % increase over prev yr 9/30/07 605 8.0% 9/30/08 511 6.2% 9/30/09 391 4.5% 9/30/10 224 2.5% 9/30/11 114 1.2%

  6. Using our reserve funds To continue services, we drew from our reserves, hoping that state funding and growth would return when the economy picked up … but the economy is still in the doldrums.

  7. Using our reserve funds Local operating fund carryover 6/30/08 $4.3M 6/30/09 $5.4M 6/30/10 $5.2M 6/30/11 $3.5M 6/30/12 $1.8M (proj)

  8. Growth and operating fund carryover Enrollment growth Local operating fund carryover 9/30/07 605 8.0% 6/30/08 $4.3M 9/30/08 511 6.2% 6/30/09 $5.4M 9/30/09 391 4.5% 6/30/10 $5.2M 9/30/10 224 2.5% 6/30/11 $3.5M 9/30/11 114 1.2% 6/30/12 $1.8M (proj)

  9. Current situation We have reduced spending, but with enrollment growth slowing and reserves no longer robust enough to bear the burden, we need to act to cut $2 million in expenses by June 2013.

  10. Please provide input! We’re asking you to help us get there by identifying ideas for cost savings in your school and across the district. If you have ideas, please fill out the survey or submit ideas via your school administrators. Together, we’ll achieve our goal!
