Budget Advisory Committee
During May and early June, we will create a Budget Advisory Committee that will review all budget options and inform the proposed budget that staff will present to the DPS Board of Education in June. The committee will include:
- Board of Education members, including Board Treasurer Angela Cobián.
- Two community members, to be appointed by the Board Treasurer.
- The chair of the budget sub-committee of the District Accountability Committee.
- Four DPS staff members, including a teacher, two non-management staff and a school leader, to be appointed by Superintendent Susana Cordova.
- Deputy Superintendent for Operations Mark Ferrandino, Chief Financial Officer Jim Carpenter, and Executive Director of Finance Chuck Carpenter.
The Budget Advisory Committee will continue meeting on a regular basis in the 2020-21 school year to provide input into budget assumptions, core values informing the budget, budget development processes, and updated budget information as the year progresses.
