In the August 15 Waterford Post there's a summary of the proposed school budgets. In the high school Salaries increase from 398,000 to 977,000, and "Purchased Services" (outsourced?) increase from 757,000 to 1,386,000. This is a total increase of 1,208,000 for "people costs". What's going on?

I think members in our community that are more informed is outstanding. Then there is no rumor mill or criticism about the village or the schools.
It is also nice to see members in our community want to get involved.
Last night's WGSD meeting reinforced my opinion that the administration has no clue about responsible financial management. They apparently developed a budget by using an artificial maximum set by the state DPI, then allocated expenses to use up the funds. Fortunately there were enough "good guys" present to send a message to the administration and the board.
