Resolution No. 12 11 R (W): Resolved that the Hammonton Board of Education approve the following: Resolution for School Boards Regarding Sequestration WHEREAS, a world class public education is essential for the future success of our nation and today’s schoolchildren; and WHEREAS, the Budget Control Act of 2011 includes a provision to impose $1.2 trillion in across-the-board budget cuts to almost all federal programs including education that would become effective January 2, 2013; and WHEREAS, these across-the-board budget cuts would impact school districts during the 2013-14 school year, with the exception of the Impact Aid program, with which a reduction would become effective this school year; and WHEREAS, these across-the-board budget cuts, also known as sequestration, would impact education by a reduction in funds of 8.2 percent or more and could result in larger class sizes, fewer course offerings, loss of extracurricular activities, and teacher and staff lay-offs; and WHEREAS, sequestration would impact almost every public school system in the nation and the millions of students educated through programs such as Title I grants for disadvantaged students, the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), English Language Acquisition, Career and Technical Education, 21st Century Community Learning Centers, and more; and WHEREAS, Hammonton Board of Education , as well as other public schools, would be impacted nationwide by an estimated $2.7 billion loss from just three programs alone – Title I grants, IDEA special education state grants and Head Start – that serve a combined 30.7 million children; and WHEREAS, federal funding for K-12 programs was already reduced by more than $835 million in Fiscal Year 2011, and state and local funding for education continues to be impacted by budget cuts and lower local property tax revenues; and WHEREAS, states and local governments have very limited capacity to absorb further budget cuts from sequestration, as Hammonton Board of Education has already implemented cuts commensurate to state and local budget conditions; NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Hammonton Board of Education urges Congress and the Administration to amend the Budget Control Act to mitigate the drastic cuts to education that would affect our students and communities, and to protect education as an investment critical to economic stability and American competitiveness.
