Gilbert Public Schools leadership presented its proposed budgets for the 2025-26 fiscal year at the June 10 governing board meeting, outlining what they consider a conservative financial plan.
The board will vote on final adoption of the budget — which was shaped by anticipated student enrollment decline, inflationary costs and uncertainty surrounding state legislative support — at its June 24 meeting, following the required public notice and hearing process.
The proposed maintenance and operations budget reflects the administration’s expectation of a continued decrease in student enrollment, which affects state funding levels.
