X. Comments from the Audience
Discussion

Mr. Palm updated the council on the following:

1) The federal government shutdown if continued, would have left districts responsible for Food Service, Title I and Special Education expenses. The district would likely not have been able to meet these expenditures.

2) Current enrollment is down 15 students from last year. Based on this ADA will be cut by $50,000 for the 2014-15 school year.

3) Each of Kentucky's 173 school districts are being urged to approve a measure that would fund a study demonstrating the funding inadequacies in Kentucky for education

4) The Chimney cleaning cost $4000.00 any additional repairs will be done this summer at the earliest.
