The Fluvanna County School Board presented its $18.8 million budget to the Board of Supervisors at a budget work session on Wednesday (Feb. 17).
They anticipate that the county will need to pay an estimated $788,000 more than the previous fiscal year.
Outgoing Superintendent Chuck Winkler outlined the budget, adopted by the school board at their Feb. 10 meeting. Increases over FY21 include $1 million in salary increases, the hiring of new reading and math specialists to help students regain ground lost to the pandemic closures, a remedial summer school program, and raises in substitute teacher pay to meet the increased state minimum wage. Federal and state funds will cover some — but not all — of the increases.
