FY2026 SUPERINTENDENT’S RECOMMENDED BUDGET

FY26 BUDGET PRIORITIES, INITIATIVES & BUDGETARY CONSIDERATIONS At a minimum, maintain level funding in the appropriated budget because of inflation prices on consumables.

The leadership of the dep artment has shifted from a Visual Arts Department Leader to two designated liaisons who have full time teaching schedules. Department members want to advocate for a structure that includes more administrative support and evaluation by an administrator in their subject area.

Instructional Equipment needs: ●​ Replace obsolete iPads and Computers in Visual Arts program

Proposed Initiatives: ●​ Consideration to add another ½ year arts elective to the ABRHS graduation requirement to align with MassCore is being discussed
