Fiscal Recovery

Enrollment and Average Daily Attendance (ADA) are how school districts in California are funded.  As mentioned in the answer above, AUSD has been in a declining enrollment status for over a decade.  As such, the loss of student attendance continues to reduce the funding that the District is entitled to from the State.  In prior fiscal years the need for drastic reductions had not been addressed, and now the District was faced with a possible “Negative” budget certification with the State of California.  In order to prevent this from happening, a Budget Committee was formed and a Fiscal Recovery Plan adopted in March 2022.

Fiscal Recovery Update 2025-26: Securing Auburn Union’s Future

Following over a decade of declining enrollment and the exhaustion of one-time pandemic relief funds, the Auburn Union School District (AUSD) has successfully stabilized its financial future through the decisive actions outlined in our Fiscal Recovery Plan. Faced with a potential "Negative" certification and state intervention in 2022, the District implemented a strategic transformation that included the difficult decision to close two schools while simultaneously transitioning our campuses to a unified TK-8 model. 
These structural changes have successfully eliminated the structural deficit and aligned our facilities with current Average Daily Attendance (ADA) realities, resulting in a "Positive" budget certification from the State of California. By streamlining operations and reducing overhead, AUSD has been able to maintain a 17% reserve for economic uncertainties, providing a vital safety net that ensures local control and protects our ability to deliver high-quality, student-centered education for years to come.
