Funding priorities, public input discussed at public forum
Las Cruces Public Schools will host the first public meeting in a series of town hall-style gatherings on Wednesday, Nov. 6 at 5:30 p.m. in the boardroom of the Dr. Karen M. Trujillo Administration Complex. Led by the LCPS Finance Division, the Budget Town Hall meeting will demonstrate to the public the budget process, timeline and an overview of the budget survey, which will open to the public on Dec. 1.
Chief Financial Officer Chenyu “Alex” Liu will present an overview of the upcoming fiscal year budget and the strategies the district employs to gather feedback from the public. One strategy is the collaboration of the Budget Survey Committee, which includes teachers, administrators, community members and staff.
The public is invited to attend the Nov. 6 meeting in person, or view it online using this link.
There will be additional Budget Town Hall meetings that will be open to the public in 2025: March 26 and again on May 7. Both meetings will start at 5:30 p.m. in the boardroom.
