Ideas for feedback:
What can KPBSD provide to help you--and others--understand the fiscal problem and assist with solutions?
Which areas of the district budget, or a school site budget, could be reduced in 2017-2018 if there is a 3 to 20 percent reduction in education funding revenue from the State of Alaska?
What are your suggestions to legislators about funding shortfall solutions?

“As the State of Alaska works to develop a sustainable long-term fiscal plan, our district will continue to provide the highest quality educational experience it can within that state plan. We are asking all of our stakeholders to be engaged in the budget process to help prioritize programs and services to be offered in our district. Some decisions may be difficult, but there are many opportunities too. Ultimately, our budget process will help inform our state and borough leaders of the needs our schools have to provide an excellent education. I look forward to beginning this discussion and supporting all stakeholders to participate in the district and state planning process.” –Sean Dusek, superintendent of schools
