Grades K-5
The building enrollment is 545 students. Grades K-2 have 80 students

Grades K-5
The building enrollment is 545 students. Grades K-2 have 80 students for each grade; the student-teacher ratio to be maintained for each grade is 20:1. Grade 3 has 92 students, grade 4 has 96 students, and grade 5 has 117 students. The student-teacher ratio to be maintained at the grades 3-5 level is 25:1. This will give you the number of teachers you will need for the regular education classes. Also take into consideration for your building one special subject teacher for each of the following: art, music, and physical education. In addition, budget for three special education teachers and a guidance counselor as well.
Grades 6-8
The building enrollment is 565 students. Grade 6 has 210 students, grade 7 has 174, and grade 8 has 181. To determine the number of homeroom teachers required, use a ratio of 25:1. Also keep in mind that some homeroom coverage may be done by special area teachers as well. Apply the subject areas you have in your own school, the major categories being language arts, math, social studies, science, world language, art, physical education, etc. In addition, budget for three special education teachers and a guidance counselor.
Grades 9-12 (could be the whole school or a department)
The total building enrollment is 2122, and the department enrollment is 150. Assuming you are currently in a high school, you can apply your personal experience to the development of the budget. You must maintain a student-teacher ratio of no greater than 25:1. In addition, budget for three special education teachers and a guidance counselor.
Common Assumptions for All Three Grade Configurations
Below are common assumptions for all three grade configurations in preparing the budget:
Math and science textbooks are being replaced at a cost of $100 each for all grades. 2. Professional development is $100 per teacher in your building or department.
Student supplies should be allocated at $100 per student.
Secretarial salaries should be $30,000, and there should be one secretary for every 250 students (K-8) and one secretary for every 500 students (high school). Teacher salaries used should be the average salary found on your district report card.
Administrator’s salary should also be the average from the district report card.
Include a nurse per building and use the average teacher’s salary.
Miscellaneous expense (Other Objects): Assume $50 per student regular education. For guidance and the nurse’s section, assume $10 per student. For the principal’s office, assume $25 per student.
Supplies for the guidance office, nurse’s office, and principal’s office should be the same as the miscellaneous expense.
Professional development for the guidance, nurse’s, and principal’s accounts should be the equivalent of one overnight conference at a total of $500.
