The proposed $70.8 million 2013-14 school budget would raise property taxes by 1.9 percent. It was unveiled Tuesday and is headed to the full school board for review next month. This year’s budget eliminated 10 positions through attrition, including seven teachers and one administrator. The year prior, seven teaching positions were cut, as well as the driver's education program.
