The net effect of 2010 property tax caps on the total expenditures of Indiana's K-12 public school systems will be manageable.
According to the October 5, 2009, estimates from the Legislative Services Agency, the state's 293 K-12 public school systems will experience a net revenue decline of $71,313,565 as a result of the 1%-2%-3% property tax caps in 2010. This $71.3 million revenue decline is computed after applying school property tax replacement grants. A local school system gets a 2010 property tax replacement grant from the state if the property tax revenue lost to property tax caps exceeds 2% or the total property tax levy. A school system's property tax replacement grant covers cap losses in excess of 2% of the school system's total 2010 property tax levy. The full effect of the property tax caps will first be felt in 2010 - they were phased in at a 1.5%-2.5%-3.5% level in 2009.
A good way to evaluate the $71.3 million revenue decline from the 2010 property tax caps is to compare it to the total spending of Indiana's 293 K-12 public school systems. The latest available grand total expenditures data from the Indiana Department of Education is for the 2008 calendar year. The DOE K-12 school data includes revenue from all sources - local, state, and federal. Indiana's 293 K-12 public school systems spent a grand total of $14,339,032,259 in 2008. The $71.3 million property tax caps revenue decline in 2010 is only 0.5% of the $14.3 billion grand total expenditures of Indiana's K-12 public school systems in 2008.
Of the 293 K-12 Indiana public school systems, 230 school systems will experience a 2010 property tax caps revenue decline that is less than 0.6% of their 2008 grand total expenditures. Fifty school systems will experience a 0.6% through 1.0% decline, while only thirteen school systems will experience a decline that is more than 1.0%. NO school system will have a 2010 property tax caps revenue decline that is more than 3.0% of its 2008 grand total expenditures.
You can go online to http://mustang.doe.state.in.us/TRENDS/fin.cfm to find detailed 2001 through 2008 expenditures data from the Indiana Department of Education for your local K-12 public school system. Be sure to click the submit button for the "Descriptive Listing by Fund and Account" Report.
Each local public school systems gets its revenue from most or all of the following state, local, and federal revenue sources (excluding capital project bond proceeds): Local Property Tax, Other Local Revenue Sources (various), Financial Institutions Tax, Non-Property Taxes, License Excise Taxes, Commercial Vehicle Excise Tax, Tuition (various), Earnings on Investments, Rent of Property, Receipts from Clearing Accounts, Fees (various), Receipts from Extra-Curricular, Congressional Interest, Unrestricted State Grants-In-Aid, Restricted State Grants-In-Aid, Sale of Property, Adjustments, Refunds, Unrestricted-Thru-State Federal Grants-In-Aid, Restricted-Thru-State Federal Grants-In-Aid, Restricted-Direct Federal Grants-In-Aid, Other Federal Revenue Sources (various), Local Textbook Rentals and Sales, State Textbook Reimbursements, Gifts, Donations, Trusts, Bequests. All state, local, and federal revenue for our public schools ultimately come from the same source - working families.
The property tax caps will not cut the tuition support for our school children. Classroom spending has been assumed by the state in return for the recent statewide sales tax increase. However, the property tax caps may stress the transportation budgets of some school systems. Some school revenue is dedicated and cannot be transferred to meet transportation needs. It MAY be necessary to give school systems additional flexibility to transfer non-classroom funds to cover transportation shortfalls. It might also make sense to working families to increase local income taxes to cover school revenue shortfalls if the 1% homeowner property tax cap is reliably guaranteed. The only way to reliably guarantee the 1% homeowner property tax cap is through passage of the constitutional amendment on the November 2, 2010, statewide ballot.
The net effect of 2010 property tax caps on the education of our children will be manageable. There is no good reason to oppose a constitutional 1% homeowner property tax cap that will make the tax burden of Hoosier working families more fair and affordable in these turbulent economic times.
Some actions that school corporations can consider to increase savings and efficiency to offset the effects of property tax caps during tight economic times include those listed next.
1. Undertake a district or school analysis of where funds are spent and whether they align to student learning.
2. Freeze, reduce, or rollback the present salary and benefits of all school employees.
3. Use insurance pools, including the state health plan, to compare cost effectiveness, level of coverage, and appropriate deductibles.
4. Reduce school administration and school board compensation packages.
5. Suspend 403(b), 401(a), and 457(b) matches for all employees.
6. Institute a corporation hiring freeze except for those positions that are neutral to the general fund or add teachers.
7. Eliminate memberships in professional associations and reduce travel expenses.
8. Effectively outsource transportation and custodial services and direct savings to the rainy day fund.
9. Use extra money that school corporations may have in the general fund and rainy day funds.
10. Sell. lease, or close underutilized buildings.
11. Reduce or roll back operating and program budgets to previous year levels.
12. Review school consolidation options both within the corporation and between corporations.
13. Offer no summer school opportunities that are not fully reimbursable from the state level or do not pay for themselves with reimbursements from vocational dollars.
14. Enable shift of dollars from administrative use to targeted summer school or other remedial use.
15. Focus the corporation curriculum on the core subjects, narrowing elective offerings within core subjects.
16. Reduce the number of sports, clubs, and academic teams, or use participation fees or sponsorships to pay for them.
17. Eliminate activities outside the varsity level competition played on non-school days to save on energy cost and supervision personnel.
18. Consider charging all non-school groups to contribute to incremental costs of operating the facility.
19. Eliminate delivery systems that increase the cost of academic education by more staff, such as block schedules or trimesters.
To identify the progress (or lack of progress) of Indiana school corporations in improving the ratio of student instructional expenditures to all other expenditures, the Indiana Office of Management & Budget has prepared a Student Instructional Expenditures Report (2007-08)
