Emergency Deficiencies Correction Fund: Application Process and Procedures

An emergency is defined as a serious need for materials, services, construction, or expenses that exceeds the school district's adopted budget for the current fiscal year and seriously threatens the functioning of the district, the preservation or protection of property, or public health, welfare, or safety.
