Board gets budget numbers

The New Prague Area School Board got its first look at the proposed 2008-09 budget at its meeting Monday, April 28.

Finance Director Dan Pyan presented budget figures to the board.

The proposed budget calls for revenues of $29.91 million and expenditures of $29.85 million, or a surplus of around $62,000. When added to the expected unreserved fund balance at the end of the current fiscal year, that would mean an unreserved fund balance of $92,526. That is far below the amount the board would like to have on hand.
