BALTIMORE —Baltimore City Public Schools could come up short as it looks ahead to planning next year's budget, CEO Sonja Santelises said.
"There's a projected budget gap of about $60 million," Santelises said.
Speaking at a City Council committee hearing Tuesday night, Santelises gave council members a closer look at the district's financial books and predicting what may lie ahead.
"We have been proactive in my administration in seeking out outside eyes. We have not been insular," Santelises said.
The district is focused on six months down to road, when millions of state dollars from a three-year funding package called Bridge to Kirwan will run out.

ReplyDeleteHow does a school even spend more than they are budgeted? Do they have credit cards? If you're starting to run out of funds toward the end of year suspend certain wasteful practices.
ReplyDeleteStarting to see things like this ....the government taxes us to educate our children (among other things) ...the money is better spent by the family unit. The government is deciding for us how our money should be spent. How is this not theft?
