Budget Process: School Goals
January 31, 2026
Dear Parents, Guardians, Staff, and Community Members,
On Monday, February 2, 2026 the Winslow School Board will hold the first of many meetings focused on the development of the 2026-2027 draft school budget.
The development of a school budget is a long process involving numerous meetings and conversations with key stakeholders. As always, the budget is developed with certain priorities in mind as a result of our analysis of student data (both academic and social-emotional). Over the course of the next few months, budget presentations will be held with the Winslow Board of Education. I have included a budget timeline (see below) in the event you would like to attend any of the meetings. The meetings will be held in the Winslow Jr./Sr. High School Library. They begin at 6:00pm. The meetings are open to the public, live streamed, and recorded for transparency and accessibility. You can view the live board meeting by going to the Black Raider News Channel (https://www.youtube.com/@...).
During the presentations, you will hear about our successes, student demographics, our goals and the rationale behind our request.
The presentations will feature a line by line accounting of the budget and will highlight the major cost drivers which include inflation, contractual obligations, unfunded state mandates, and negotiated labor increases.
I hope you are able to take advantage of attending some or all of our budget meetings either in person or virtually from the comfort of your home.
Thank you in advance for taking the time out of your busy schedules to learn about the thinking that went into the preparation of this budget and the needs we are trying to address with our financial request in order to provide a quality education for our students.
