Downingtown school district approves preliminary budget - Janice Roosevelt, Keller Williams Real Estate, PA & DE -

The Downingtown Area School District's preliminary budget, which includes a 2.35 percent tax increase, has been approved. The budget, originally proposed with a 2.5 percent tax increase, states that all salary increases will be eliminated, with the exception of a 4.25 percent increase for the teamsters union employees, which was previously agreed upon in their contracts. The budget also proposes participation fees, in response to parents' and students' comments during April's board meeting. The budget also proposes $75 parking fees for high school students who drive themselves to school.
