ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The preparation of the annual budget is a substantial leadership responsibility. Recent trends in the country’s business community and the school community suggest that quality is achieved through the involvement of many persons.

The development of the proposed 2014-2015 School District budget is consistent with the trends aiming toward quality. The District

administrators, building administrators, teachers, staff, parents, and indirectly students, all had input into the development of the budget. All are to be commended.

Collaboration requires leadership. Keeping people included and focused upon a common mission requires greater leadership and time. The people whose names appear below provided the leadership that made the development of the proposed budget possible.

MEMORANDUM TO: Board of Education Colleagues FROM: Raymond Sanchez Superintendent of Schools

Alita Zuber Assistant Superintendent for Business Dr. Angela White Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction RE: Superintendent’s Proposed School District Budget: 2014-2015 School Year INTRODUCTION In the Ossining School District, we are dedicated to ensuring that all students are educated well. Our goal is to prepare our students to be successful in whatever they choose to do after graduating from Ossining High School. The budget serves as a “means to an end,” providing the resources necessary to ensure that we can and will achieve that goal. Yet, at the same time, we must understand and respond to the fiscal needs of our community. This year’s budget focuses on three areas:

Educational Solvency: Ensuring that we provide educational programs that meet the needs and interests of our students.

Security: Enhancing security equipment throughout our schools to ensure the safety of our students.

Space: Addressing the need for adequate instructional space across the district. BUDGET PROCESS The budget process began with a meeting of our Administrative Team to review the effectiveness of our existing programs. At the same time, members of the Citizen’s Budget Advisory Committee have been lobbying the state on the District’s need for additional Foundation Aid. These efforts have included a community forum, letters, meetings with legislators and numerous trips to Albany. We also spoke at the recent state Budget Hearing. For additional information related to Foundation Aid please click here.

Our approach to the budget has been both transparent and collaborative. We have worked hard to ensure that the budget provides programs that meet the needs of every child in our District and help to avoid educational insolvency. GOALS OF OUR BUDGET DEVELOPMENT PROCESS It has been noted in our presentations that we had the following goals in mind during the development of this budget.

Avoid educational insolvency by continuing advocacy efforts to increase the Foundation Aid that Ossining is legally entitled to receive, which is projected to be an additional $7M in 2014-15.

Continue to maintain transparency through surveys, informational meetings, and Community Budget Advisory Committee efforts.

Continue to evaluate opportunities for sustainable budget savings and slowing expenditure growth.

AREAS OF FOCUS: EDUCATIONAL SOLVENCY, SECURITY AND SPACE Educational Solvency: This budget reflects the continuation of our electives at Ossining High School, the Science Research Program, after school programs at AMD and programs in the arts and athletics. Based on our February 26th Board of Education meeting and survey results, we know our community values teacher to student ratio. We have been experiencing increases in enrollment. Yet, we have made every effort to ensure that we address the need for instructional staff in grades PreK-12. Particular emphasis has been made to address class size at AMD. This budget also seeks to address the needs in Special Education and English as a Second Language classes. We have dissected every non-instructional area in search of efficiency, economies of scale, and expense reductions wherever possible to preserve as many programs for as long as possible. We successfully reversed the trajectory of health costs as well as administrative and transportation expenses growth back to 2009 levels. These cuts have resulted in over $6.3 million in the past year alone. Additional savings/cost avoidance measures include the following:

Identified $4.6 million in capital improvements with no budget impact through an Energy Performance Contract (EPC).

Received $2.5 million in competitive grants. Negotiated Triborough for teacher and administrator contracts. Saved $1.2 million over 12 years by re-financing bonds.

Throughout the process, we carefully considered the impact that the decisions would have on our students. Our goal is to ensure that the needs of our students are met and that

we take into account the values of our community. The items in this memo reflect the current status of state aid. Again, our focus is to remain educationally solvent. Safety And Space The Administration and Board of Education recognize the importance of budgeting for building maintenance and understand the long-term effects of not supporting funds for capital projects. While the capital bond project approved last year by our community will help to provide significant improvements to our facilities, it does not meet all of the District's needs. As a result, the District continues to recommend the funding of the transfer-to-capital budget line to ensure that we continue to address some of our on-going capital improvements not included in the capital bond. Additionally, one of the Board’s goals is to address future space needs in our elementary schools. The 2014-15 Budget reflects these anticipated needs. Student safety continues to be a district priority. As such, the 2014-15 budget contains funds for additional cameras and an improved surveillance system that will help emergency response efforts. Savings from closing capital projects completed below budget as well as remaining funds from the self-insured health and long-term disability plans no longer needed since the District has moved to predictable premium based plans are being used as appropriated fund balance. These savings and remaining funds will be used to cover non-recurring expenses to avoid a cliff in the following year when the funds are no longer available. New, recurring expenses like the lease for storage and administrative space will have no impact on the tax levy. Lease expenses will be offset with expense reductions in health, Xerox Copier equipment, fuel oil, and bond re-financing. OTHER AREAS OF INTEREST Transportation As part of the budget, we will be asking our community to consider voting on decreasing the transportation mileage limits for Claremont School. We are recommending that we decrease the limits to .5 miles for students in grade 4. Below you find details related to the proposal.

Grade Level Current Mileage Limit Proposed Mileage Limit Grade 3 ½ mile ½ mile Grade 4 1 mile ½ mile

This change will not impact the District budget. Yet, our community must vote to make the change. This change will be put to the voters by way of a separate proposition at the annual election and meeting on May 20th.

REVENUES The information below provides the best projections available at the time of this writing. Modifications to revenue projections will be provided as they become available. State Aid On January 22, 2013, Governor Andrew Cuomo released his proposed budget to the legislators which included projected state aid to school districts. Under the Governor’s proposal, the Ossining School District would see an increase of approximately $862,000 in state aid when compared to 2013-2014 budget. Other Revenue Sources There are other limited revenue sources that comprise the total revenue to support the budget. The two major areas are composed of state aid and property taxes. At this time, the District anticipates that it will realize approximately $20,271,736 in revenues other than property taxes and appropriation of Fund Balance for the 2014-2015 school year. This compares with $16,425,000 which the District had anticipated last year at this time for the current 2013-2014 school year. We will continue to monitor revenue projections and will adjust accordingly, prior to setting the tax warrant. Proposed Budget and Tax Levy Our 2014-2015 proposed budget is below the District Tax Levy Limit or Cap. The proposed budget reflects a budget-to-budget increase of 2.86% or a dollar value of $3,160,790. Consideration will be given to the amount of Fund Balance that will be allocated to offset property taxes. Given the anticipated revenues as referenced above of $20,271,736 and an appropriation of Fund Balance and the Retirement Contribution Reserve Fund in the amount of $2,890,871, the District projects an estimated tax levy of $93,322,506 which represents a tax levy increase of $1,865,554 or 2.04%, which is below the District Tax Levy Limit or Cap calculated to be 2.06% for the 2014-2015 school year. Fund Balance Through extremely careful planning during the 2013-2014 school year, strategic exercising of cost saving efficiencies, and deferring various projects, it is anticipated that the District will be able to realize an authorized Fund Balance of four percent (4%). This Fund Balance is advantageous within the context of a conservative budget. Given the potential for emergencies and unexpected situations, maintaining a Fund Balance is quite important.

Tax Rates As always, at this time of year there are far too many unknown variables and factors relating to state aid to project a firm tax rate. Presently, the Governor’s State Aid Executive Proposal has been of concern for the Ossining School District as well as all districts throughout New York State. We are aggressively reaching out to legislators to address this issue relative to the State Budget. We do expect to project estimated tax rates soon. It is important to note that there are still outstanding tax certiorari claims that have not been settled. Tax certiorari claims may enable taxpayers to reduce the assessments on their properties. Until such time as the tax rolls are set in August, the impact upon the final tax rate can not be determined. The potential assessment value decreases will have an impact on the tax rate within the three towns of the Ossining School District. Equalization rate changes, determined by the New York State Office of Real Property Services [ORPS], also will affect apportionment of the school tax levy causing a potential shift in each share of the levy. We provide this information in order to promote greater understanding of the tax rate issues that are well beyond the control of the District. SUMMARY As stated previously, our budgetary goal was to ensure that we maintain quality programs for the students we serve in the Ossining School District. We worked to addressed three areas: educational solvency, safety and space. Furthermore, we continue to support the following areas: academics, athletics, and cultural arts. Yet, the budget still remains below the Tax Levy Cap. We encourage our community to stay informed throughout the process. Below are a few ways that you can stay connected:

In conclusion, we want to thank everyone who helped to develop the Superintendent’s Proposed Budget. RS/nr 2-25-13 School Budget 2014-2015 Budget Memo to BOE 061
