Fulton County taxpayers and parents this week will get a look at the district’s recommended annual budget.

During a school board meeting on Thursday, Fulton County Schools Superintendent Mike Looney and the finance team will present a draft budget for the fiscal year that starts July 1.

The district’s general fund budget for the current year is just over $1 billion.

Public hearings on the upcoming budget are scheduled for May 4 and May 13, according to a district announcement. The board is expected to vote June 8 on adopting the spending plan for next school year.
