EXPENDITURES LISTED The actual expenditures for 1956 exceeded the budget by $71,301.53. This was due to the extra cost of teachers' salaries and supplies. | Last April there was an adjust. | ment in salaries, a new schedule for the secondary teachers and| an adjustment for elementary teachers. This together with the additions to the staff resulted in the increased cost of instruction | of about $100,000 over the amount set up in the budget. This was offset by curtailing some of the expenditures for| operating and maintenance which gesulted in a net deficit on the| 11956 budget of $71,301.53. | ¢ W. G. Bunker, business admini- Mtrator -and secretary-treasurer, fin presenting the financial state-| gment for consideration by the Board, noted that the Board com. | gmenced 1956 with a surplus of tnearly $25,000 and finished with a| tdeficit of $42,315.56. | "The revenues have been, as in| Whe past," explained Mr. Bunker," | conservatively estimated and d on former experience. Il | fhelieve this has proved satisfac- 'tory. While there have been re- rts of increased grants nothing as been received from the De-/ ent of Education to indicate increases in revenue from that] urce.' | TIME HIGH Mr. Bunker emphasized tHat the ditures for in- education: | 1953 -- $1,226,809.34. 1954 -- $1,357,700.03 1955 -- $1,562,271.80. 1956 $1,835,923.53 or about 50 percent higher than 1953. | The budget set up for 1956 was | : |$1,764,622. The actual expenditure: | exceeded this by $71,301.53. [f NO ALARM SEEN Increase in the estimated ex-| | penditures while large, should not| |be alarming, due to the increased cost for salaries, extra teachers,| | and the supplies' and maintenance | ' that accompanies usually the in-| creased number of schools. The | {principal 'increase over 1956 is for | |salaries which amounts to $94,-| 246.20. This includes the extra | staff for the increase in enrol- ment, It may be pointed out here that the increase of $192,465.92 this year over last year's required tax | levy may be attributed to an in- rease of 650 pupils over 1956, | This averages about $300 per| pupil. | In 1953 the total mill rate for all| £ purposes was 23.1213 out of a 57| § mill rate. | In 1954 due to increased as-| sessment this was reduced by 1% mills of a 56% mill rate to 21.8591. | In 1955 due to a further in- crease in assessment this was further reduced by 1% mills of a| 56% mill rate to 20.3085. | In 1956 the mill rate was in-| creased on a 61 mill rate to] 23.3015. In presenting the budget for the Board's approval, Mr. Bunker said that it may be possible to reduce some of the items other than the salaries. | He added: "I befisvs the va- | Willlam H.
