Budget & Enrollment Overview
01

Budget Summary: YTD Actuals
Note: Budget is based on a projected enrollment of 787 students and 97.5% ADA. The school receives approximately $10,000/student; therefore, not hitting our enrollment goal can impact the budget significantly. 1st interim budget revisions will reflect actual enrollment number revenue. 
Actual to Budget: This report is as of Aug 31, 2024, compared against our board-approved Initial Budget on 06/14/2024, based on enrollment count of 787 students enrolled and an enrollment ADA of 97.5%. YTD Revenues through Aug 31, 2024, are $971,577 or -5.7% under our current budget due to receiving slightly less LCFF revenues than budgeted. ($890K Actual vs $920K Budget). YTD Expenses through Aug 31, 2024, are $1,591,204 or -13.1% under our current budget due to underspending in Personnel Expenses ($239K) and Services ($75K). This is slightly offset with overspending in Books and Supplies by $86K. Therefore, net income is ($619,627) or -22.6% over our current budget.
