 “FOCUS ON OUR FUTURE” FORUMS

The Novi Community Schools seek your input during our State’s financial crisis. This year our revenue was reduced, in the middle of the year, by $2.8 million because of cut backs in the State budget. The financial crisis is affecting the Novi Community School District.  In the years ahead, we are facing additional significant funding cuts from the State.  Novi Community Schools’ families, staff, and community members can get a clear picture of the school district’s budget, the cost of various programs and services, and offer their input during a series of five separate “FOCUS ON OUR FUTURE” forums, sponsored by the Novi Board of Education and the Novi Administration in February.

The Forums are scheduled at the following times and locations:
