At Tuesday's OVUU School Board Meeting, Brenda Fleming, RNESU Director of Business & Finance, presented on the OVUU Fiscal Year 2028 Initial Budget Environment. This is one of the first steps in planning for the next school year, and is meant to give the board and public insight into budget factors that will drive decision making.
The presentation, along with the meeting minutes, and a recording of the meeting (Budget Environment presentation starts right around the 1:29:08 minute mark) can all be found online at rnesu.org/ovuu under the 10-06-2026 meeting information.
Presentations about the RNESU and BUU budget environments will be given at their upcoming meetings, on October 19 (BUU) and October 21 (RNESU) - information about those meetings, including virtual attendance options, can be found at rnesu.org/events
Our community's voice matters! School budgets affect students, staff, families, and the communities we serve. We encourage community members to attend a meeting, tune in virtually, or watch the recordings to learn more about the factors shaping budget decisions. Staying informed and asking questions are important ways to participate in the process as we begin planning for the year ahead. Questions, comments, and concerns can also be shared any time through Reach Out! at rnesu.org/reachout
Budget updates will be shared regularly here on our website (rnesu.org/budget), through our Facebook page, and Front Porch Forum. Annual reports will be mailed to all registered voters in January.
