Linda T., I would guess Mrs. Brakewood lives in Port Chester if she is running for the Port Chester…Read More Board of Ed. Even if the schools had to impose an austerity budget, your taxes would still go up. The state has more control in these matters than you think.

Linda, the per pupil expenditure in PC schools is the lowest in Westchester and Rockland counties…Read More ... by about $2,000 per student.
The issue is two fold. First, our property values are not as strong as our neighbors, so our homes have a higher levy in order to fund the schools. Second, and more important, is that the reliance on property taxes slams moderate income communities like PC. We need for the state to move to an income tax to fund schools. Scream at your legislators ... not the BoE.

I am concerned there is not enough attention to detail in the BOE budget overall and Mrs. Brakewood…Read More comment about keeping taxes affordable ... where does she live ? they are out of control and in my opinion the money we pay for taxes we should have the best looking schools anywhere ... just my opinion

Concerned View, I am sure if elected Jimmy and the other rocket scientist Tommy will put their heads…Read More together and solve all our financial woes. Likely they will figure out how to have an iPad for each student, join the code enforcement guys on overcrowding raids, tie Starwoods negotiating team in knots, and solve global warming. Hey, when most of the retired teachers I know are driving around in Fords, Tommy is cruising around town in a brand new Mercedes Benz, so as a self proclaimed fiscal conservative he must be great at crunching those numbers and stretching a buck!

Suspecting that in the next few years, the school board will be forced to resolve the gap between…Read More expenses and revenues.

Concerned View, both the village and the schools have rising expenditures. Costs go up every year -…Read More is this a surprise!? The village has the ability to cover up its rise in expenditures by jacking up fees for things like parking, permits, and the like. Didn't I just read an article about new parking meter fees and hours village wide?
The school district have no choice but to present and explain its rise in expenditures. The taxpayer has to be smart enough to understand that the rise is unavoidable and reasonable given economic circumstances.

Concerned View, you need to sit down with Mr. Carriere and get on the same page on this issue. You…Read More seem to want the district to buoy the fund balance (or go over a cliff!) while Mr. Carriere wants the district to drain it and give it back to the taxpayers. You are confusing readers by being on such opposite pages on this big issue. It certainly makes me glad that neither of you are in charge of the school budget.

MM11, one reasonable explanation might be that there are two teachers in many classrooms. In…Read More inclusion classes (mainstreamed special ed classes) there could easily be two or MORE teachers in the classroom, bringing down the student-teacher ratio while the actual number of students in the class remains the same.
