Burlington MA School Budget Deficit
Burlington MA School Budget Deficit
The Issue
There have been serious financial problems within the School Department in the last year, culminating with the announcement in July of approximately $800,000 of overspending in the 2017-18 school budget.
The School department needs a full, independent review of business processes to determine what happened so this problem doesn’t recur.
On September 24th, Town Meeting Members will vote to fund this review. Please sign this petition urging Town Meeting to fund this financial review.
Thank you.
