<br />CHAPEL HILL-CARRBORO CITY SCHOOLS <br />Lincoln Center, Merritt Mill Road <br />Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27516 <br />Telephone: (919) 967-8211 <br />Neil G. Pedersen <br />Superintendent <br />Ann Hart, Assistant Superintendent <br />for Instructional Services <br />Chester Preyar, Assistant Superintendent <br />for Support Services <br />TO: John Link <br />Orange County Manager <br />FROM: Neil G. Pedersen <br />Superintendent <br />RE: Anticipated Major Budget Issues for 1999-2000 <br />DATE: November 2, 1998 <br />In anticipation of budget discussions later this year, I anticipate the major new <br />expense items to include the following: <br />Expenses Associated with Opening a New Elementary School <br />Our staffing allocations provide many locally funded positions for new schools; <br />therefore, a major cost will be incurred when the new school in Southern Village opens. In <br />addition to staff, new schools generate additional, non-personnel operating expenses such <br />as utilities and staff development. An estimate of the total costs has not yet been prepared. <br />(Note: Although a major addition is being constructed at East Chapel Hill High School, it <br />is not anticipated that there are too many new operating or personnel expenses. Some <br />resources will be transferred between the two high schools when enrollments are balanced. <br />Local Salaries <br />The Board of Education has approved a salary supplement enhancement plan for <br />teachers (a copy has been provided to the County Manager). The major priority in this plan <br />is to boost local supplements for less experienced teachers so that our supplement schedule <br />will be competitive with those of surrounding school districts. <br />In addition, an administrative salary study was completed last year, which the <br />Board will implement over two years. Half of the cost was included in the 1998-99 <br />budget, and the remainder should be provided in the 1999-2000 budget. <br />Class Size Reductions <br />The Administration provided the Board of Education last February with a report on <br />class size (a copy has been provided to the County Manager). The report proposes <br />reducing class sizes over aten-year period and the first year reduction, at the ninth grade, <br />was implemented last year. In the second year of the study, it is proposed that class sizes <br />in grades 10-12 be reduced from 26 to 25 and that class sizes in grade 3 be reduced from <br />26 to 20. The estimated personnel cost of such reductions, assuming that all third grade <br />classes would continue to be staffed with afull-time assistant, is in excess of $550,000. <br />
