Executive Summary 

The 2014-15 budget presented herein represents a collaborative effort between all departments of the Buffalo City School District (the “District”) and takes into account the Superintendent’s Strategic Plan and priorities finalized in 2013-14. Each year the District continues to face major structural deficits that must be closed while prioritizing the budget goals of adequately staffing schools and maintaining direct services to students. This task has become increasingly challenging each and every year. Fortunately, the District received significant relief with the adoption of the state budget and was able to reduce the $36 million deficit it had at the time the budget was adopted by $18.5 million. The Western New York Delegation is to be commended for both the aid increases and legislative changes that will positively impact the District in 2014-15 and beyond.

Overall, the 2014-15 budget is increasing $12.6 million above the 2013-14 budget and full time employees (FTE) are increasing by 77 primarily all at the school level.

Major budgetary investments were made to the Superintendent’s priority of extended learning time for students by increasing the General Funds allocation by $3.0 million to a total cost of $4.7 million. The budget was also increased $.2 million to support the continued expansion of physical education for elementary students.

In reviewing the budget it is important to remember that the District must adopt a budget that is timely and uses the best assumptions available at the time. The budget is an estimate. The budget process includes making reasonable assumptions and estimates that allow the District to achieve its goals while protecting against budget deficits. Adjustments can be made at a later date if significant changes to the estimates or assumptions occur.

Budget Trends:  

Since 2008-09, the final year the District received state aid increases in accordance with the State’s Four Year Educational Investment Plan, total General Fund Expenditures have increased $135.9 million. Of that total, $38.2 million is for debt service related to the District’s five phase $1.4 billion reconstruction program that is over 93% funded by building aid from New York State. Therefore, the remaining increase across all other categories totals $97.7 million. However, as indicated in the graph to the right, the growth relates to costs primarily beyond the Districts control. Even though employee compensation has decreased $3.0 million, employee and retiree benefits (health insurance and pension) have increased $57.9 million over the same time period. Tuition payments to charter schools have increased $31.1 million. At the same time, state aid exclusive of building aid has increased only $19.1 million. Given that the District is 82% dependent on state aid, has no authority to raise its own taxes and has not received an increase in revenue from the City of Buffalo since 2006-07, this is a very alarming trend. The District has been using fund balance reserves and cutting costs to close the annual deficits caused by these revenue and expenditure trends.

Budgetary Goals

Despite persistent operating deficits, the District has annually accomplished its budgetary goals of maintaining the integrity of the classroom and minimizing cuts that could impact direct services to students. In fact, the District has been able to invest in certain areas over that time. The chart below shows the major functional areas that have both increased and decreased staff since 2008-09:

Functional Area

Positions (Reduced)/ Added And Percent of Staff Changes

Central Services (IT, Plant, Mail) (39.5) = (13%) Finance (16) = (25%) Transportation (8) = (19%) Human Resources (5.5) = (16%)

Pupil Support Services (Attendance, Guidance, Social Workers)

+53 = +60%

Occupational Education (CTE) +24 = +10%

The 2014-15 General Fund Budget is based on the following baseline assumptions:

Enrollment:

The current year PK-12 District enrollment totals 34,465 and is projected to be 34,700 next year. Charter enrollment is expected to be 7,600 for 15 schools at a total cost of $98 million with a per pupil tuition increase of $250 for 2014-15.

Revenues:

State aid is based on the adopted State Budget The District will not use Unassigned Fund Balance to fund operations $10.2 million of Assigned Fund Balance will be appropriated to balance the budget as follows:

o $5.6 million assigned for Other Post Employment and Employee Benefits will be used to pay for the increase in Teachers Retirement System rates.

o $4.2 million assigned for prior year claims related to collective bargaining contracts o $.35 million assigned for capital needs will be used to establish a capital project to fund computer purchases

Sales tax receipts will increase 5.7% ($2.2 million) based on the trend and regional projections

Expenditures:

Single salary step increment is included for 2014-15; no other pay raises for the upcoming year except for those in current collective bargaining agreements

District will obtain health insurance savings through clinical edits implemented through the carrier’s regular course of business and other changes in accordance with the Affordable Care Act by January 1, 2015

All vacant positions shall be evaluated to determine alternative service delivery options. Positions must be proven critical to district operations and approved by the Superintendent prior to being filled

Master scheduling support shall be provided to schools to ensure that courses and staff are scheduled effectively and efficiently and under rolled classes will be closed

Prior to the placement of students at schools that would require the opening of a new classroom or hiring of additional staff, the Placement Office must work with the curriculum departments and schools and obtain the Superintendent’s approval

Building Usage assumptions in the budget are as follows: o Schools 40 and 44 will be moved to School 4; 40 and 44 will be closed o Middle Early College will co-locate with Math Science Preparatory o Annex #115 will merge into Harvey Austin o Swing School 78 will be closed o The department staff in School 28 will be moved to School 187; School 28 will closed o 18A (Parent Center) will be closed and parent rooms will be set up in School 187 o Schools 8 and 171 will suspend operations (minimal operation costs)

School Based Budgeting:

The 2014-15 Budget is the second year of the school based budgeting process. Schools were provided baseline staffing based on the ratios established and outlined in the Budget Handbook which can be found on the webpage for the Finance Department. Staff is still centrally assigned for Occupational and Vocational Programs, English Language Learners (ELL), Special Education and Related Services, Student Support Teams and Attendance. Schools not receiving supplemental funds via School Improvement Grants were then allocated supplemental flexible funds on a per pupil basis for students identified in the categories below. A student can be counted twice. Additionally, schools with grades K-8 received additional staffing for visual arts or music programs and schools whose SIG funds expired in 2012-13 or 2013-14 will receive transitional funding. For 2014-15, the amounts allocated are as follows:

Page 8: 2014 15 Buffalo Public Schools budget

  

Specific major actions to close the budget deficit and discussion or descriptions as appropriate are as follows: Action Description/Discussion $$$

1. Use of Assigned Fund Balance See the revenue assumption on fund balance above. $10.2 2. Legislative Budget - State Aid Increases

and relief in per pupil tuition for charter school students

$18.5

3. Central Office and Departmental Reductions

The Superintendent directed departments to cut 10% from their central office budgets to ensure the goal of keeping cuts as far from the classroom as possible.

$4.4

4. Facilities See the expenditure assumptions on facilities above. $2.9 5. Health care savings for both employees

and retirees District will obtain health insurance savings through retirees leaving the health plan as part of a retirement incentive, clinical edits implemented through the carriers regular course of business and other changes in accordance with the Affordable Care Act by January 1, 2015

$4.7

6. Right-sizing student to staff ratios by implementing staffing standards for Integrated Co-Teachers (ICTs)

Upon review of the student to teacher ratios for ICTs, it was found that a total of 131 teachers had student loads of three or less. It is recommended that whenever possible, the ICT serve at least 5 students

$7.4

7. Maintain the current staffing model for personal care aides of 12:1+3:1 and ensure the use of 1:1 aides be reserved only for cases where data supports the need

Upon review of the placement of personal care aides, it was noted that the current staffing model was not being used and personal care aides were assigned outside the parameters of the model

$.6

8. Reduction in other employee benefits Based on both the trend for the expenditures, retirements and adjusted salaries in the budget, a reduction is being projected in unemployment costs, termination pay and social security

$2.2

9. Reduction in the contingency account The initial deficit included a contingency of $5.0 million to cover unanticipated costs, such as those imposed upon the District after the fiscal year started in 2013-14. That amount has been reduced to $3.0 million

$2.0

Revised budget deficit after actions to close the deficit $0

The Food Service Fund totals $27.6 million for 2014‐15.  There are three components within the fund:

1. The Food Service Program provides breakfast, lunch, snacks, and after school meals to Buffalo Public School students, some Charter School students (Academy of Science, Aloma D. Johnson Fruit Belt, Buffalo Hearing and Speech, West Buffalo , Elmwood Village, King Center, and South Buffalo), three non‐public (St. Augustine, St. Monica, and Autistic Services) and two out‐of‐district charter schools (Niagara Charter in Niagara Falls and Baker Academy in Lackawanna), in accordance with USDA regulations and is primarily fueled by the federal government and meat sales. 

2. The Emerson School of Hospitality provides students with an academic program while focusing on career preparation in the food service and hospitality industries.  While Emerson’s budget is separate from the Food Service Program, federal dollars flow through the Food Service Program for the Child Nutrition Program, as administrators of the program, which feeds Emerson’s students. 

3. The Summer Food Service provides meal service to children during the summer months and is also federally funded.  They provide breakfast, lunch, and snacks to Summer School students and organizations, by request (i.e. Bible Schools, Day Camps).  Additionally, lunches are provided to Parks and Community Centers.
