Newton Public Schools FY27 Digital Budget Book

Per Pupil Allocation Each school’s per-pupil allocation is spent at the principal’s discretion for an array of instructional supplies and materials, textbooks, equipment repairs, professional development, software, school office expenses, and other goods and services. The per-pupil allocation is derived by multiplying the per-pupil rate by the projected enrollment at each school. The FY27 budget for per-pupil allocation is $1,290,554, which represents gross level funding for the school districts. Enrollment has been steadily declining across the district, but due to inflationary pressure the grand total amount of funding in this area has remained the same.
