Guiding Change Document

The District 742 has the Guiding Change Document to understand (1) the context and realities within which the board will make budget adjustment decisions; (2) unacceptable means or considerations; and (3) the results expected when the adjustment process is complete. A timeline for the Board of Education to determine the specific budget adjustments to compensate for a $2.6 million dollar shortfall in the 2010-2011 school year is attached to the Guiding Change document. Community members should note three public meetings, where public input is welcomed. View a list of potential budget reductions and/or revenues, developed by district administrators. Community members may submit budget ideas to budget@isd742.org. The list will be updated as new suggestions are submitted and considered by the Board of Education.
