On May 21, Mayfield Central School District voters approved the district’s $22,489,083 budget proposal for the 2024-25 school year. The budget proposition passed 175 to 49.
“Thank you to all of our Mayfield community for supporting our 2024-2025 school budget,” said Superintendent Christopher Harper. “The budget will enable us to sustain all programs and services that are currently being offered, and continue to deliver quality education for our students.”
Courtney Scalise was elected to a five-year term on the Board of Education. She will begin serving her term July 1.
The ballot also asked residents to vote on five other propositions. The first, which allows the district to purchase two (2) 66-passenger buses for approximately $330,000 to be paid from the Bus Purchase Reserve Fund, passed 183 to 43. The second, which allows the re-establishment of the Bus Purchase Reserve, including extending the term 10 years and increasing the maximum allowable deposits from $2 million to $5 million, passed 183 to 48. The third, which allows the re-establishment of the Capital Reserve, including extending the term 10 years and increasing the maximum allowable deposits from $1 million to $3 million, passed 181 to 49. The fourth, which allows the establishment of a Technology Reserve for a period of 10 years, with maximum allowable deposits of $2 million, passed 191 to 39. The fifth, which allows the purchase of a dump truck and sander for use in grounds maintenance for approximately $115,000 to be paid from the Capital Reserve Fund, passed 184 to 47.
The district is eligible for roughly 80% reimbursement for bus purchases through state transportation aid. None of these propositions will affect the 2024-25 school tax levy.
