The Prince William County School Board will hear Superintendent Steven L. Walts' 2010-11 and Capital Improvement Plan budgets Wednesday.
The school board will hold a public hearing on the budget Feb. 8 at 6 p.m. at the Stonewall Jackson High School auditorium. Speakers can sign up to talk for up to two minutes, starting at 5 p.m. until the last speaker that night.
After Wednesday, the budget will be posted online at www.pwcs.edu.
The board is slated to approve a budget March 17 and will present it to the Prince William Board of County Supervisors in April.
All signs point to a grim budget, with the state facing a $4.2 billion shortfall and the school division grappling with an influx of students this school year. As of Sept. 30, the school division had 2,000 more new students than originally anticipated.
Staff writer Kipp Hanley can be reached at 703-878-8062.
