Going over the tentative budget is a yearly practice for the Clinton School District, and happens during the August School Board meeting. 

Superintendent Drew Goebel explains that during this meeting, they are finalizing the State funding that they receive, like the Corporate Personal Property Replacement Tax, or CPPRT, funds. He notes that this budget is considered tentative because there are times when new funding opportunities present themselves. 

At the September School Board meeting, they will they will finalize the budget. Goebel says they have all of the salaries and benefits set, so he has a good idea of what that final budget will look like. 

Goebel indicates that the major athletic facility upgrades were split between this year's and last year's budget, because it rolls over on July 1. He adds that the high school auditorium work is also included. 

The September School Board meeting is scheduled for Monday, the 22nd, beginning at 6:00 PM.
