The Higley Unified School District revised its final budget Aug. 6 for fiscal year 2024-25 to correct a budgeting error and reflect the final appropriations that the Arizona Legislature approved after the district’s budget adoption.
The revised budget shows no change in maintenance and operations, which remains at $128.06 million, where it was at final adoption June 26. The maintenance and operations budget pays for the day-to-day operations of the district, including most salaries.
However, the capital budget changed from $15.33 million to $15.02 million after the Legislature’s final budget forms were adopted, Chief Financial Officer Tyler Moore said. The capital budget pays for items like building maintenance, transportation and technology.
