6.b. Student Activity Funds
Agenda Item Type:
Action Item
Description:
Note for new board members:
All student activity accounts are set up as liability accounts for accounting purposes. Liability accounts exist on the credit section of the balance sheet and, therefore, will carry a credit balance. All activity accounts in these reports should have a credit balance. If any account shows as a debit (positive) balance then it is truly negative and will be brought to the advisor's attention for remedy. |

7. Budget/Tax Levy Update
Agenda Item Type:
Information Item
Description:
In December 2020, the Board of Education adopted the 2020 Certificate of Tax Levy. At that time, the levy request was based on estimates. In April, each County Clerk submits to the District the actual Equalized Assessed Valuation (EAV) and the final tax extension.
I will present an update to the tax levy comparing estimated calculations to final calculations and provide some additional historical data.

10.c. Approve Fees for the 2021-2022 School Year
Agenda Item Type:
Action Item
Description:
Annually the Board approves fees to be charged for the next school year. I have attached a copy of the fee schedule. There is only one change to the fee schedule and that was the removal of one fee too.
I have also included a proposal to increase to the official's pay for athletic events. The following is the reasoning for the increase as stated by the Athletic Director. I have attached the official pay for our conference schools; however, it sounds like several schools plan to bump their pay again starting next year. We had discussed increasing our pay last spring and it did not get done with Covid. On my end this is simply supply and demand as I spoke to two separate assignors this morning due to the fact that we are still in need of umpires for this spring season on a couple of dates, and there just aren't enough people to go around and it is only going to get worse. We are going to have to stay competitive or above to get officials let alone good ones. I am proposing/asking that we increase pay $10 across the board for the 2021-22 school year.
