Budget Development

Overview & Purpose

As part of the District’s ongoing effort to create a more equitable school system for students, families, and staff, we work to create an Equitable Budgeting and Staffing Model and annual process for allocating funding to our schools. Our goal is twofold: 

  1. Resources, including money, time, qualified staff, appropriate facilities, materials, instructional hardware and software, and academic and other supports – must be distributed in ways to ensure that all students achieve high academic standards; 
  2. To increase transparency and community participation in the budget development process. 


Objectives

  • Support the implementation of the CVCCSD Mission and Vision;
  • Meet or exceed Education Quality Standards;
  • Implement key initiatives;
  • Implement and continue to improve the budget process - including a focus on community input.
