Wellesley Public Schools: Fiscal Year 2026 Budget
FINANCIAL SECTION
The Financial Section of the budget is designed to provide the reader with essential financial information, including historic, current, and projected revenue and expenses across all funding sources: general fund, grant funds, and special revenue funds.
Level Summaries
The financial section provides information in a pyramid approach to communicating the district’s financial data. This approach begins with a broad overview (Level 1) and increasingly drills down into more detailed levels (Levels 2 through 4). A brief overview of each level that will be examined in this section is outlined below.
