The Lawrence Unit 20 Board of Education met in special session Monday morning and approved adoption of a tenative 2019-20 fiscal year budget. The meeting was called to enable the district to meet the time constraint of having that budget available for public viewing for 30 days before a budget hearing and formal adoption on September 18th. Superintendent Doug Daughtery told WAKO news that the tenative spending plan is expected to be balanced with the addition of an anticipated extra $300,000 increase from the state of Illinois.
