Pottstown School District Personnel/Wages
More than two-thirds of the Pottstown School District budget goes for salaries (45.5 percent) and fringe benefits (20.8 percent).
The following chart was created from a 2011-2012 line item budget received from Pottstown School District business manager Linda Adams on May 15, 2011. This line item budget covers the general fund, which accounts for the lion's share of district funding. We have not received a line item budget for the cafeteria fund, the athletic fund, the elementary school fund, the data fund, and the capital reserve fund.
The line item budget categorizes expenses by building. Using our own resources, we retyped the line item budget information into an Excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet reflects the information as we received it.
The budget does not reflect a new contract with the Federation of Pottstown Teachers approved by the board on June 2.
The new contract reduces the cost of the standard health insurance plan for Federation members, but it provides an across-the board-salary increase of 1 percent.
Also, the line item budget we received does not reflect some last-minute changes in the approved budget.
District Personnel expenditures are contained on this page as follows. General expenses may be found on the "Pottstown School District Budget" page of this Web site.
