May Revise

2-4pm

Hosted at CCCOE

Presented by Capitol Advisors in collaboration with ACSA, CSBA, SSDA, AALRR and CLIMATEC

In response to the looming revenue shortfall, the Governor and Legislature took early actions to reduce the revenue problem by about $17 billion.

After rapid revenue growth and record-breaking General Fund (GF) and Proposition 98 spending over the last few years, this downturn or leveling off is not unexpected. Fortunately, both the GF and Prop. 98 have healthy reserves built up, so some of the shortfall can easily be managed. Having said that, if additional revenue and expenditure adjustments are necessary, all options will be on the table. If the shortfall is larger than hoped, we may see proposals to increase some of the GF borrowing schemes proposed in January and/or a return to principal apportionment deferrals as alternatives to making large cuts to existing programs.

Proposed funding and programs in the May Revision will be discussed, as well as advocacy plans related to:

Maintaining LCFF gains and critical ongoing programs
Adopting state fiscal policies that will minimize disruption to students and classrooms
Funding, policy and implementation issues related to expanded learning, TK, universal meals, community schools, special education, etc.
The political dynamics that will impact the Legislature’s consideration of the Governor’s proposal

CSBA Budget Resources 2024-2025

The 2024–25 state budget process promises to be the most contentious and confusing in years. CSBA's education budget resources page will help you stay informed on the state budget, communicate with your stakeholders about important developments and advocate for the funding our schools need to educate and support students during challenging financial times.

After a decade of steadily increasing state budgets, revenue shortfalls have presented the possibility of budget cuts that could affect curriculum, programming, staffing, operations and facilities at the local school district and county office of education level. Staying up to date on the negotiations and the potential impact on your local educational agency is imperative. We aim to give you the resources and tools you need to stay informed, stay in the fight for full and fair school funding, and keep your students, families, staff and community engaged on this important issue.
