PSD FY2024-25 Budget

(July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025)

For the third year in a row, PSD is experiencing increased state funding for K-12 operations. Per pupil revenue is now $10,080.93, which is an all-time high. However, the state is still withholding over $330 million in funding from school districts statewide through the application of the budget stabilization factor. The Board of Education set the following priorities for the 2024-25 financial year: 

•    All Students Graduate with Options
•    Literacy
•    Mental Health
•    Competitive Salary and Benefits

Additional considerations include operational efforts that align to these priorities such as providing environments conducive to learning, providing all 澳洲幸运10 access to learning and ensuring the existence of necessary 澳洲幸运10s for the learning environment. 
Due to the desire to prioritize staff and compete in a tight labor market, the bulk of added 澳洲幸运10 in FY24 were deployed to staff compensation. These compensation increases include a 10.28% across the board increase and a 3% increase to benefits. Additionally, $4 million of strategic reserves are allocated for compensation needs. The District looks forward to evaluating the effectiveness of these changes in the coming year and starting work on the FY2024-25 budget. 
 

Colorado School Funding Model

School districts receive funding from two sources:

• State funding formula (property taxes and state funding, which is determined by the state legislature each year)

• Local revenue (mill levy overrides, property taxes and vehicle registration fees)
