School district seeks input on priorities, budget deficit - Sacramento News - Local and Breaking Sacramento News | Sacramento Bee:


"The Sacramento City Unified School District is inviting the community to respond to two surveys, one aimed at identifying school improvements and another dealing with how to address a projected $30 million budget deficit.
School board members and Superintendent Jonathan Raymond plan to use the surveys to determine the district's needs and priorities.

The surveys were crafted Jan. 12 by district officials and community members.

Budget survey questions ask participants to gauge the importance of things such as class size, transportation and sports.

The other survey asks participants questions such as how effective the district is at preparing students for college.
Surveys are available at www.scusd.edu until Feb. 9."
