Board members express frustration over anticipated shortfall in revenue
The Port Washington-Saukville School District would have to grapple with an estimated $600,000 deficit next school year under Gov. Scott Walker’s proposed budget — a sobering realization that prompted an uncharacteristic flash of frustration from some School Board members last week.
“We always find a way (to balance the budget and maintain educational programs), and people have come to expect that, but at what point do people understand that we simply can’t afford the same education for our children,” board member Sara McCutcheon, chairman of the Finance Committee, said during a March 25 committee meeting.
