Annual Budgets
The Menlo Park City School District follows an 18-month budget cycle that begins each spring with the development of the budget for the following school year. This budget must be adopted by July 1 and is developed alongside the District's Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP), which is approved at the same time. After adoption, the budget is updated twice during the school year through interim reporting periods. The first interim report reflects financial activity through October 31 and is submitted by December 15. The second interim report covers through January 31 and is submitted by March 15. At each of these stages—including the original adoption—the Board of Trustees certifies the financial condition of the District. Following the close of the fiscal year on June 30, the District finalizes its financial records and reports the Unaudited Actuals by September 15. The final step in the budget cycle is the presentation of the independent Audit Report, which typically occurs in December. Interim and year-end financial reports are available to the public and can be found on the Board’s Agenda Online page, corresponding to each reporting period.
