The Jacksonville school board meets in special session tonight to act on a new budget.
The board will meet at 5 PM at the school district office.
The only item on the agenda is a presentation of the fiscal year budget.
The school administration will present budget numbers for the coming year. The proposed budget will be posted, and a public hearing on the plan is scheduled for September 16th.
A budget deficit in the proposed plan is expected to run about $6-million in the red.
The school district plans to spend down cash reserves, and use revenue from the school sales tax to pay for construction bonds.
