D21 Says Governor’s K-12 Budget Figure Won’t Be Enough

North Wasco County School District 21 officials have the same message for the Oregon Legislature that other K-12 educators around the state have been delivering:  any biennial budget that allocates less than eight-point-four billion dollars for Oregon schools over the next two years will result in cuts.  D-21 Chief Financial Officer Randy Anderson says he is starting out using the eight-point-oh-two billion dollar figure in Governor Kate Brown’s proposed budget.  Superintendent Candy Armstrong says if it’s under eight-point-four billion, cuts are coming one way or another.  Many legislators have indicated lawmakers will wait for the May revenue forecast before moving forward on K-12 budget decisions.
