On time school delivery enhances teaching and learningfor students and teachers.Evidence or Reasoning for this Strategy:Budget request is based on oil changes every 6,000 miles. Otherprojected years will use 5,000 miles.32 quarts are used per oil changecost per quart is 1.25Tire changes occur every 15,000 miles for recaps and every 25,000 milesfor new tires6 tires per change (4 recaps and 2 new)average price per recap = 129.35average price per new = 235.62Fuel average cost - $1.97 per gal.Average bus fuel usage is 6.6 miles per gal.16,215,153/6.6 x 1.97 = 4,839,977Since the cost of fuel is extremely volatile, our projected cost could behigher or lower. Due to current trends, this cost may increase before thebudget is fi nalized.In an effort to keep cost down, no increases will be requested for 2007-08 in Fund 1 supplies. The increase noted for bus parts of $103,062 isa reallocation of savings from license fees for buses. Future projectionswill use a 9 percent growth rate. Local request for supplies, fuel, andparts all use the 9 percent as an increase.227 FY 2007-08 Plan for Student Success
