Changing Student Needs
Over the last five years, student needs within our district have changed significantly.
+ Students with Disabilities: +58%
+ English Language Learners: +26%
+ Students in CTE/P-Tech: +29%
+ Economically Disadvantaged: +21%
+ Homeless Students: +920%
These changing dynamics increase the need for:
✔ Student support services
✔ Specialized instruction
✔ Counseling and mental health supports
✔ Career and technical opportunities
The proposed budget reflects the district’s commitment to meeting the evolving needs of all learners.
