Funding prospects for School District 55 remain up in the air with the State of Oregon’s budget shortfall, but officials hope that cash carryover from 2000-01 will help curb the impacts on the district next year.
“We’re uncertain,” Supt. Bill Hampton said. “We have some cash carryover will help.”
The district is facing an estimated $450,000 to $500,000 shortfall in funding next year. The cash carryover may help the district maintain service levels in 2002-03.
