The first (and most important) warrant article on your ballot determines the amount of expenses (costs) that the District can incur during the 2021-22 school year that begins July 1, 2021.
There are some key points to keep in mind as you read the information provided below and decide to support the budget - or not.
Regardless of the vote on this Warrant Article:
- Certain costs to maintain COVID-related safety measures will still be incurred
- Costs of employee health benefits and NH State retirement programs are going to increase by $1.164 million (see page 3 of the linked .pdf file below)
- The total operating budget is going to increase by at least $0.715 million…see “Default”
- State revenues are going to decrease
- Local property taxes are going to increase
Approval of the budget will allow the District to implement three key new programs in our COVID-driven “Journey to Resiliency” plan. The total cost of these programs: $1.35 million.
For more complete details, please see this .pdf file.

The previous article in this series on District Finances discussed the three options for disposition of the remaining Fund Balance at the end of any given fiscal year:
- Appropriations to Trust Funds (“Transfer”)
- Retention of unassigned funds (“Retain”)
- Returned to the taxpayers when they are utilized by the Department of Revenue Administration in calculating the local education tax rate (reduction of District Tax Assessment) for the following fiscal year (“Return”).
Article 3 of this series discussed NH Emergency Order 38 which allowed the District to “retain” a portion of the FY19-20 unused funds to meet the unanticipated costs associated with COVID. That was a helpful albeit temporary solution.
This article will discuss proposed Warrant Article 12 – “Fund Balance Retention” which would establish a contingency fund that could be used – indefinitely – to meet the costs of unanticipated expenses that arise during the year.
For a detailed treatment of the topic, including a flowchart, please see this .pdf file.
