FY2011 Budget Fairfax County Public Schools anticipates having to face a budget deficit of $100 to $200 million for FY 2011 (next school year). During the FY 2010 budget cycle (current school year), FCPS closed a budget deficit of $200 million. If the school system has to make additional cuts for the FY 2011 budget, it will be the third consecutive year that the FCPS budget has been cut. FCPS has prepared a FY 2011 fiscal forecast (PDF document) that provides information on potential revenue shortfalls and deficits for the next budget year. This information was presented at a joint work session of the Fairfax County School Board and the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors on September 29. Citizens are invited to help school leaders determine the priorities for the next budget year. In partnership with Fairfax County government, FCPS is holding a series of budget community dialogues on six dates throughout the county, and invites all citizens to attend and join in the budget discussions. Fairfax County has just announced three additional community dialogue sessions on the FY 2011 budget due to public demand. Information on potential FY 2011 Program and Service Reductions for discussion purposes has been updated.
