November Board of Ed: FY25 budget recommendation

 Mohammed: budget is just under $8B but vast majority is distributed via formula 
memo is here
three priorities proposed:

• early literacy
• mental health
• teacher diversity
  
  

Moriarty: "this is not trivial sums if we're going to have the impact we hope to achieve"
Stewart: inflation glitch as raised earlier
"is that something we need to have a better understanding of?"
Riley: think we should put this on the December meeting, too (they could discuss this, as it's part of the FY25 discussion that they are having!)
"the inflation number has come down a little bit but that thing moves"
(WHAT?)
Hills: Tutwiler won't be alone in having needs 
says literacy and diversity, not just nice to have initiatives but "critical and core" to moving 
(and mental health isn't?)
Riley notes Board needs to vote

recommendations pass
