Cuts to Central Kitsap Public Schools
After last year’s $1.5 billion in K-12 budget cuts, the current proposed budget in the 2010-11 school year cuts about $400 million in additional K-12 funding. The combined cuts are nearly enough to educate more than 225,000 Washington students for a year. Here is the local impact of the proposed cuts over the next two years:
| Initiative 728 voter-approved funding to reduce classroom over-crowding | -$910,338 |
| Levy equalization funding (to hold down levy rates) | -$1,896,652 |
