Mr. McClure said much of what is included in the School budget was suggested by
teachers, administrators, advisory committees, school advisory committees, and School
Board members. Each principal was asked to hold a session with the school advisory committee
to get parental input. Principals were also asked to hold a discussion at each of their
schools at a faculty meeting to get employee input. The Superintendent issued public
invitations Cor the people of Albemarle County to make their suggestions known to him by
telephone, letter or in person. The School Board had seven public work session devoted
to the budget and several other public meetings at which budget considerations were made.
The budget presented to the Board reflects what the School Board and administration
believes to be needed to maintain the quality of its educational program and to make
necessary improvements in educational services for the students of Albemarle County for
the 1977-78 school year. If the cost of openingga new high school is considered, it
becomes obvious that the School Board has made a special effort to make other increases in
the budget modest, but reasonable. (No action taken on the School Budget this date.)
