The Morning Call reports that NASD Board has approved all day K in all schools (read the article here).
''We are continuing to look at ways to find funding,'' said Superintendent Victor D. Lesky.
Taxpayers can expect a tax hike as the proposed budget will increase over $2.5 million this coming year.
Lesky recommended keeping the tax hike at 2.9 percent while continuing to reduce expenditures to avoid going to a voter referendum to maintain a fund balance.
Last year the district used all its exemptions to go above the referendum limit, and I’d anticipate the same this year.
The Board also approved an extended teachers’ contract giving the teachers annual raises of 3.75% per year for four years and one less day to work per year.
