The North Nodaway School Board, at their monthly meeting Monday, voted to raise the preschool tuition to $250/month across the board. Previously, it was $250/month for regular families and $180/month for families on free & reduced lunch for four year olds and $250 across the board for 3 year olds. There will be exceptions, as determined by the administration on a case by case basis.
Currently, the preschool is running at a deficit, with two salaries costing the school $60,000 a year. There were 20 students in preschool for this year. Superintendent Chris Turpin recommended going to a flat rate for budget predictability purposes.
Previously, the preschool offered free and reduced lunch families free tuition, but then federal funding went away.
The measure was passed on a 7-0 vote.
