Board of Education Approves 2009-10 Budget

San Diego Unified School District has a budget for the 2009-10 school year and a state-required spending plan for 2010-11.

The Board approved the budget at its regular meeting Tuesday, June 23, with no changes for the 2009-10 school year from the board approvals on June 2. It's a $1.1 billion spending plan balanced based on the Governor's May Estimate, which the state requires school districts to base their budgets on before the state budget is passed.

The state requires a budgets to be submitted to the local county office of education for the next two fiscal years; budgets must show the district has sufficient funds to complete the current year.

The state currently does not have a budget for the 2009-10 fiscal year.
