The future of the Continental School District may rest on the outcome of Proposition 410 , a measure appearing on the November ballot that seeks to increase the district's budget through a minor tax adjustment.If passed, Proposition 410 would increase the district’s maintenance and operations budget override from 14% to 15%, generating an additional $44,000 annually.
Rico-Beaucage noted that a significant loss in federal funding has placed added pressure on the school’s budget, making the override essential to maintaining current staffing levels.The district lost about $77,000 in federal funding due to a change in how students qualify for free or reduced lunch, which impacts funding levels. This change occurred because of another minimum wage hike in January, leading to fewer students qualifying.
