Canajoharie Central School District residents will vote Tuesday, May 20, on a proposed $26,060,135 spending plan for the 2025-26 school year. The proposed plan calls for a 2.58% spending increase over the current year’s budget.
If approved, the budget would increase the tax levy by 1.53%, which does not exceed the state mandated tax cap. Over the past four years, the district has averaged a 1.78% annual tax levy increase. Since the proposed tax levy increase falls below the district’s legal limit as defined by the state’s tax cap legislation, a simple majority (50% plus one) is needed to approve the budget.
For the 2025-26 school budget, the goals were to maintain student programming, keep jobs and not exceed the tax cap. With this budget proposal, we are able to attain all of those goals. It should be noted that this is a status quo budget.
“After next school year, without additional aid, volatility at the federal level and ensuring our tax increases are at a minimum, we will have to look at cost savings measures in the very near future as expenses are outweighing the revenues,” said Superintendent Dr. Nick Fitzgerald.
