What is shaping the district's budget?
Mohonasen's board has adopted a 2026-27 budget while warning that costs are expected to rise faster than revenue in later years. State aid, property taxes, and reserves are important funding sources, while transportation, benefits, instruction, and debt service shape costs.
A $77.27 million budget
