LHUSD Board Meeting Summaries

Director of business services Missy Wood gave a presentation on the 2011-12 budget. Discussion of the budget and related issues went on for 55 minutes, and covered many things, including the future of the school tax credit program. Board president Jo Navaretta said the Arizona School Boards Association was going to advocate for the abolishment of the school tax credit because it was felt that all districts do not benefit equally from the program. Superintendent Malay pointed out that our district sports programs rely on tax credit funds. Navaretta called tax credit funds a lifeline. "This is our only lifeline," she said, "and you don't throw your lifeline back until you're safely in the lifeboat." Handouts
