Dollar A Day Statistics

As of January 27th, 2011 our Dollar-A-Donations, which include Dollar-A-Day donations and Community Day, has reached $78,000. That is approximately 8% of our goal to reach $950,000.

Why are we trying to raise $950,000?

The district will be forced to cut this amount for the next school year, 2011-2012, and, again, in 2012-2013 because of the lack of State funding. The following is what is being considered for cuts.

SVUSD expenses to cut

Please note the items starred are subject to negotiations with the teachers union and bargaining units. To meet the financial obligations of the district, these cuts will need to remain for two years.

If you would like to help, we are suggesting $365 per student, however, any amount helps.

Because of projected State budget cuts, our District will be forced to cut $950,000 from the 2011-2012 school year and another $950,000 from the 2012-2013 school year. Our schools and our children need your help.  Without it we face the potential of increased class sizes, closure of the libraries, elimination of custodians and even a shorten school year. Read more about it in this week’s Press Banner Article.
