To: Board of Education From: Larry Spring, Superintendent Date: April 25, 2017 Re: 2017-2018 Budget
Because we received a $7.5 million increase in Foundation Aid, which is one of the largest
in the region, I am pleased to present a budget that not only adds more than $5 million in
programs and services, but, also reduces the tax levy by $1.1 million. In this budget, we
are able to take steps toward closing the opportunity gap by making a significant
investment in supports and services for struggling general education students.
The 2017-2018 Budget reflects a 5.1 percent spending increase, adds 66 positions, does
not use any fund balance and reduces the levy by 2.04 percent.
We started the budget season with a rollover budget deficit. In the early stages of
planning, we made conservative assumptions about how much Foundation Aid we should
expect to receive. Moving forward, the late state budget created some challenges as we
worked to develop a budget proposal by the deadline. To work through the unknowns,
we developed five budget proposals that included increases that ranged from
approximately $1 million to more than $7 million. Finally, with the adoption and release
of the state budget, we were able to more tightly plan and propose a budget that would
include a Foundation Aid increase of $7.5 million.
Many of the positions in the proposed budget support a General Education Continuum
that is designed to identify and provide a systemic pattern of additional supports and
interventions to general education students who struggle in school. The design mirrors
the supports provided in the special education model, offering a broad range of
interventions and services, designed to meet the needs of each student that we are
servicing. The budget includes many positions, including special education and common
branch teachers, clinicians, paraprofessionals and clerical support to provide support for
the continuum, as well as, an administrator to oversee the implementation and
management of the program.
Other additions to the budget include the establishment of a mobile crisis response team, a
social development redesign to address the needs of our youngest students with significant
emotional need, and, a summer Trauma Sensitive School Institute.

The proposal also calls for adding Cultural Broker positions at the secondary level. Cultural brokers, who help
with student supervision and are generally trusted in the school community, bring intelligence and
information that enable school personnel to defuse conflict before it begins or escalates into a crisis. We
have experienced success with the work of the existing cultural brokers and, therefore, find it beneficial to
provide additional staff at the middle and high school level.
Each of the middle schools currently have two assistant principals. In response to a need for additional
administrative support to address student behavior and management, we plan to add an assistant principal
at each of the three middle schools. This addition allows for each of the assistant principals to manage one
grade cohort in the school, and, for each of the principals to focus direct attention on instruction.
The budget also supports an investment into mentor training, embedded coaching, instructional coaching,
curriculum writing, as well as, training and professional development.
The budget is the result of collaboration and strategic development that heavily addresses and supports
struggling students and our vulnerable populations.
The budget development process was transparent and inclusive of all stakeholder groups. Budget item
proposals, accepted from school administrators, were discussed at collaborative budget meetings and
workshops. School staff and community members were invited to participate in the process which included
prioritizing a long list of programs and services and continuing proposals for consideration.
Each year, when developing the budget, we pay very close attention to the financial impact on Schenectady
taxpayers. Last year, the levy decreased by .25 percent. With this budget, and a decrease of 2.04 percent,
the levy is lowered even further. As New York State moves closer to funding high need districts in the way
which they are required to do, taxpayers will see incremental decreases in their school tax bills. We are,
again, pleased to see things moving in the right direction.
In closing, I am pleased to report, with this budget, the financial health of the school district remains in good
standing. Reserves are where they should be. Fiscal stress points no longer exist. While we are adding more
than $5 million in programs and services and addressing the opportunity gap without using any fund balance,
we are still returning more than $1 million back to our taxpayers.
Thank you to our assemblymen and senators who stood behind us and fought for us throughout the budget
season. We are also grateful to the business leaders, Chamber of Commerce and residents who continue to
advocate on behalf of our students.
We remain committed to ensuring that race, economics and disability are never predictors of student
achievement.

SCHENECTADY CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT BUDGET SUMMARY
GENERAL FUND
The General Fund Budget is the operating budget for the school district and is subject to voter approval. The annual vote occurs on the 3rd Tuesday of May. A simple majority is required to approve the proposed budget unless the Board of Education has put forth a budget that is anticipated to exceed the maximum allowable tax levy. In that instance, a supermajority vote of 60% would be required to pass the budget. The maximum allowable tax levy is determined by an 8‐step calculation by each school district annually. Highlighted Changes for 2017‐18 The 2017‐18 budget has a 2.0% decrease in the tax levy. The tax levy is the amount that is raised by property taxes. The tax rate is calculated, based upon the taxable value of properties located in the City of Schenectady and a small section of the Town of Rotterdam, and the equalization rate which is established by of the New York State Office of Real Property Services.
FOOD SERVICE FUND
The Food Service Fund Budget is the operating budget for the school district’s breakfast, lunch and snack programs. This budget is not required to be approved by the district voters unless the revenues generated by the program do not cover the expenses. In that case, a subsidy is required from the General Fund with voter approval of a transfer to the Food Service Fund. The District has contracted with Whitsons to run the District’s Food Service program. Since July 1, 2013 the District has participated in the Community Eligibility Program which allows the District to provide free breakfast and lunch to all students. The reimbursement the District receives for students whose family income is below established levels provides sufficient revenue to cover the loss of revenue for students who previously paid full price for their meals. The budget includes staffing expenses related to supervision of the students during breakfast and lunch, but not for the preparation of the food. Highlighted Changes for 2017‐18 The Food Service Fund continues to maintain a strong fund balance and monies will be used to replace the equipment and improve the cafeterias for the schools. We are in the process of issuing a Request for Proposals for our Food Service Management Company, and could have a new provider in the 2017‐18 year.
SPECIAL AID FUND The Special Aid Fund is a separate account in which the District is required to maintain the accounting for all grants, the summer programs for students with disability and some other programs. Each grant will have its own budget. None of these budgets are subject to the approval of the district voters. The District receives 80% state aid for summer tuition for students with disabilities in approved programs. The remaining 20% is a transfer from the General Fund to the Special Aid account, and is included in the proposed General Fund budget. Highlighted Changes for 2017‐18 As of the date this document was published, we had not received notice that the Perkins Grant would be renewed for another year. The proposed budget includes funding to maintain the culinary program paraprofessional position that was funded through this grant. While the 21st Century Grant was a 5 year grant, ending in 2016‐17; the District was awarded the grant again which will allow for funding of after‐school programs at designated schools for the next 5 years.

SCHENECTADY CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT STUDENT PROGRAMS SUMMARY
PRE‐KINDERGARTEN PROGRAM The Pre‐K program requires an 18:1 student to teacher ratio, as well as a paraprofessional teacher aid for each class. These students receive instruction designed to promote their academic achievement and social and physical development. While the District is not mandated to provide pre‐kindergarten education, the District is currently able to educate 461 students through the support of three grants. Seven schools have one full day class and in four schools two, half day programs are offered. Each class may have up to 18 students. In addition, to our District programs, the grants also fund 5 community based programs.
Community Based Programs – 211 Care‐A‐Lot Rosa Venerini SCAP Headstart YWCA
ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS – PRE‐K TO GRADE 5 Projected Enrollment ‐ 4,805 students The District has the following elementary school buildings: Hamilton, Howe, Keane, Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Paige, Pleasant Valley, Van Corlaer, Woodlawn, Yates and Zoller.

The construction included a second floor addition to add 4 classrooms. The District’s implementation of the new General Education Continuum will result in the creation of two respite rooms for Elementary Students who require substantial academic and social‐emotional support, but who do not meet the criteria for being identified for the special education program. The location of these two classrooms has not yet been determined.

SCHENECTADY CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT STUDENT PROGRAM SUMMARY
HIGH SCHOOL Projected Student Enrollment 2,650 students The High School includes the main campus located at The Plaza, and the satellite school – Steinmetz Career and Leadership Academy, located at 880 Oakwood Street. The organizational structure of student and academic life at Schenectady High School is centered on a cohort model. A cohort is defined as the group of students who begin their high school career at the same time. Our cohort model is intended to cultivate nurturing and positive relationships among all members of our school community with a particular focus on the students, parents, guidance, pupil personnel staff and the grade level principals and assistant principals. Within the cohort model, students and their administrative teams (principals, assistant principals and support staff) move and stay together for all four years of high school until graduation. The connections made between the students, families, pupil personnel and administrative teams during this joint four year shared experience are intended to enhance our graduation rate and the overall career and college readiness of our students. This budget encompasses a broad range of opportunities for students to meet graduation requirements including:
An International Baccalaureate Program;
Smart Scholars Early College High School Program in partnership with the Schenectady County Community College;
Thirty‐four University in the High School courses that enable students to earn high school and college credits; and
The 9th grade Freshman Academy; to create smaller team learning communities as freshman transition into the high school; and
The John Sayles School of Fine Arts is a program at Schenectady High School fostering academic and artistic exploration and growth in alignment with the Common Core; and provides a comprehensive Fine Arts program in visual art, music, dance and theater.
Schenectady hosts the CISCO Academy program, a coser service through the Capital Region BOCES. The CISCO Academy provides direct benefit to our students in the form of cutting‐edge equipment and supplies in the computer networking field. In addition, through a collaborative relationship with RPI University, the District is a designated CISCO Academy Support Center for computer network training and support. Our staff provides CISCO Network training and support for teachers throughout New York State and the Northeast Region. This is a self‐sustaining program.
Highlighted Changes for 2017‐18 The District is adding .4 FTE teacher to support the expansion of the AVID program that began during the 2015‐16 year. There will also be the addition of the Music and Dance positions, previously mentioned. The District will be adding an Engagement Supervisor position. This position will allow for a larger and more comprehensive use of restorative practices in the High School, began last year with the addition of an Engagement Dean.

Instructional Expenditures for General Education are K-12 expenditures for classroom instruction (excluding Special Education) plus a proration of building level administrative and
instructional support expenditures. These expenditures include amounts for instruction of students with disabilities in a general-education setting. District expenditures, such as
transportation, debt service and district-wide administration are not included.
The pupil count for General Education is K-12 average daily membership plus K-12 pupils for whom the district pays tuition to another school district. This number represents all
pupils, including those classi ed as having disabilities and those not classi ed, excluding only students with disabilities placed out of district. Pupils resident in the district but
attending a charter school are included. For districts in which a county jail is located, this number includes incarcerated youth to whom the district must provide an education
program.
Instructional Expenditures for Special Education are K-12 expenditures for students with disabilities (including summer special education expenditures) plus a proration of building-
level administrative and instructional support expenditures. District expenditures, such as transportation, debt service and district-wide administration are not included.
The pupil count for Special Education is a count of K-12 students with disabilities for the school year plus students for whom the district receives tuition from another district plus
students for whom the district pays tuition to another district. Students attending the State schools at Rome and Batavia, private placements and out-of-state placements are included.
Instructional Expenditures Per Pupil is the simple arithmetic ratio of Instructional Expenditures to Pupils. The total cost of instruction for students with disabilities may include both
general- and special-education expenditures. Special-education services provided in the general-education classroom may bene t students not classi ed as having disabilities.

Total Expenditures Per Pupil is the simple arithmetic ratio of Total Expenditures to Pupils. Total Expenditures include district expenditures for classroom instruction, as well as
expenditures for transportation, debt service, community service and district-wide administration that are not included in the Instructional Expenditure values for General Education
and Special Education. As such, the sum of General Education and Special Education Instructional Expenditures does not equal the Total Expenditures.

The source data for the statistics in this table were reported through the Student Information Repository System (SIRS) and veri ed in Veri cation Report 5. The counts are numbers of
students reported in the least restrictive environment categories for school-age programs (ages 6-21) on BEDS Day, which is the rst Wednesday of the reporting year. The percentages
represent the amount of time students with disabilities are in general-education classrooms, regardless of the amount and cost of special-education services they receive. Rounding of
percentage values may cause them to sum to a number slightly different from 100%.
