Student Based Budgeting & Enroll Jeffco
January is the time of year that we set our budgets for the next school year. Fairmount’s budget is based on estimating how many students we expect to be enrolled next school year. This budget will be adjusted up or down next fall based on enrollment at the October count. It is important for us to have the best possible estimates so that we can plan for the ideal number of classrooms, teachers, and open-enrolled students! We also would like to avoid an unexpected budget loss next fall that would occur if we overestimate.
Please pass the word to neighbors who have incoming kindergarteners – they might not know this is the time to register for next year! How do families help with this budgeting process? To help us determine the number of continuing students, all families need to let us know if their child will be returning to Fairmount. Please visit EnrollJeffco.org and let us know by January 13th! You can access the site from the school website. If you have any questions, need to use the school computers, or need assistance with the program, please call Sue or come to the office between the hours of 7:30-4:00.
