Todd LoFrese said it is $377.50 per student. Commissioner McKee asked if the total number of students in the CHCCS system could be identified. Todd LoFrese said there are about 12,250 students. He said when he divided that number by the number of students, he got a $455 increase, and that is a significant tax increase to accommodate that much money. Commissioner Jacobs asked if the majority of the expansion budget is left over from cuts made as a result of the recession and cuts made at the state level. Todd LoFrese said about 40 positions, including teacher assistants, media assistants, and PE teachers, have been cut over the years. He said the budget request will not reinstate all positions, but will allow for an incremental gain in key areas.
