Last month, the school board was presented with a petition signed by 42 registered voters requesting a revote. The increase in technology spending came as a result of the discontinuation of a grant that has helped the school meet its technology needs. The money was set to cover the cost of buying several new computers and a new server. Conry said the upgrades to the building that have been planned, including the technology upgrades, are essential. School officials will have to consider cutting programs to bring the budget down before it is again presented to voters.
Summer school is a likely candidate for the lead position on the list of program cuts.
