Message from the Superintendent
Adopted Budget 2024 - 2025
MESSAGE FROM THE DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENT

William Pierce
Deputy Superintendent
Thank you for reviewing the 27J Schools annual budget for the 2024‐2025 school year. The 2023‐2024 school year budget was buoyed by a significant community investment through the 2022 mill levy override. This community investment of $17.74 million had a direct impact on teachers and school support staff salaries, the safety of our students, and the newly opened STEM/CTE centers at each of our 27J comprehensive high schools. As a result, 27J staff turnover is at a ten year low of 13 percent. Every 27J school has an armed security presence. Our STEM/CTE campuses have the teachers and supply investments to ensure every student has the opportunity to gain industry and career‐ focused job‐ready skills.
As our team prepared for the 2024‐2025 school year, we have again used our mission of “In partnership with our families and the community, we empower EVERY student today to take control of their future tomorrow” to guide our decisions.
We have been intentional to increase compensation for the teachers and school support staff that serve our students every day. Our beginning teacher salary will increase from $52,002 to $55,121. We will invest in our schools with an additional 47 educators beyond staffing increases associated with student growth. These investments are largely targeted to support culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) and special education students.
Our transportation department will receive additional funding for more buses, drivers, and maintenance staff to provide transportation for more students who need it. These additions align with our continued growth in student enrollment.
We made investments in various departments including facilities, grounds, transportation, technology, finance, and communication to provide greater responsiveness, and client service, to responsibly protect assets. From 2017 through 2023, the district invested nearly every dollar in our schools through class size reduction, additional counselors, CLD assistance, and special education support. We are finally able to invest in our essential departments so we can better support school staff and our community.
We are very thankful for the involvement of and leadership of our community members on the Bond Oversight and Mill Levy Oversight committees, who ensure taxpayer investments achieve the ballot promises to our community. Their diligent oversight of the $515 million bond issue election of 2021 and the 2022 mill levy totaling $24 million to help ensure our long‐term success for students in Brighton, Thornton and Commerce City.

District Facts & Information
Mission Statement
In partnership with our families and the community, 27J Schools empowers every student today to take control of their future tomorrow.
27J Schools was formed in 1959 upon the reorganization and consolidation of several former school districts. 27J Schools is located northeast of the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area and encompasses about 212.4 square miles in northwest Adams County, northeast Broomfield County and southwest Weld County and serves a population of about 110,000. The District is the only school district serving the city of Brighton and also serves segments of the cities of Thornton and Commerce City, in addition to the surrounding unincorporated and generally rural areas.
27J Schools is the thirteenth largest in Colorado (among 186 school districts) in terms of enrollment and the second largest in Adams County. During the 2023-2024 school year the District served over 20,000 students. The District has 13 elementary schools, five middle schools, one K-8 school, four high schools (three comprehensive high schools and one alternative high school), an online school and six charter schools.
The District provides a full and challenging range of educational programs and services authorized by Colorado State Statute including kindergarten through grade twelve education in elementary, middle, and high schools; Special Education; Vocational Education; an Online Education program; English as a Second Language Education; Gifted and Talented; and numerous other educational and support programs.
In addition, the District offers preschool programs through the Universal Preschool Program (UPK) and provides educational programming for the residents of the Prairie Vista Youth Services Center (PVYSC). The PVYSC serves students from fourteen school districts across Adams County by offering language arts, math, science, social studies and art. Additionally, students with special needs are provided additional educational support. For those students who are 17 and meet the appropriate academic requirements, the teaching staff offers a chance to complete a GED program.
Beginning August 2018, 27J Schools made the transition to a four-day student contact week. Students attend classes Tuesday-Friday. All 27J Schools are closed on Monday. Administrative staff remains on a five-day work week.

Focus on enrollment growth and add resources to support program changes. Enrollment growth continues to be a main aspect of the District’s budget considerations. With growth, our mission becomes even more critical so students receive more focused instruction. We have made direct investments at the Elementary, Middle, and High school levels in the previous four years to reach the above ratios. With the growth we project for this upcoming school year, we will hire an additional 20 certified staff to obtain and maintain these ratios.
With the exception of COVID‐19‐impacted school years of 2021 and 2022, 27J has increased its enrollment by 450+ K‐12 students each year since fiscal year 2017 and we are projecting to continue at or above that number for at least the next five years. This is demonstrated in the following two graphs for growth in total and across school levels. Growth in K‐12 enrollment of 507, 123, 959, 2,242 and 448 from 2020 to 2024 comes out to a total increase of 4,723 additional students to the District over those five years.
District Enrollment
The first graph shows the total District enrollment broken down between three categories: District‐managed schools, charter schools, and other educational facilities. The other educational facilities category was created due to the addition of the multi‐district contract school, Colorado Connections academy in fiscal year 2023.

Bar chart with title 'Total District Enrollment *FY 25-28 Projected'. Vertical axis shows unitless scale from 5,000 to 30,000 in 5,000 increments; and years 2018 through 2028 on the x axis in 1 year increments. For each of the eleven years, fractional components are depicted as Charter, District Managed, and Other. For 2018, hcarter corresponds with 3,910, District Managed corresponds with 13,259, and Other is not included; for 2019, Charter corresponds with 3,951, District Managed corresponds with 14,074, and Other is not included; for 2020, Charter corresponds with 3,892, District Managed corresponds with 14,640, and Other is not included; for 2021, Charter corresponds with 3,870, District Managed corresponds with 14,785, and Other is not included; for 2022, Charter corresponds with 3,971, District Managed corresponds with 15,643, and Other is not included; for 2023, Charter corresponds with 4,112, District Managed corresponds with 15,990, and Other corresponds with 1,754; for 2024, Charter corresponds with 4,279, District Managed corresponds with 16,382, and Other corresponds with 1,683; for 2025, Charter corresponds with 4,408, District Managed corresponds with 16,828, and Other corresponds with 1,683; for 2026, Charter corresponds with 5,010, District Managed corresponds with 16,836, and Other corresponds with 1,683; for 2027, Charter corresponds with 5,087, District Managed corresponds with 17,240, and Other corresponds with 1,683; for 2028, Charter corresponds with 5,076, District Managed corresponds with 17,731, and Other corresponds with 1,683;
The second graph shows the year‐over‐year distribution of all students across each District‐managed school level, at our District charter schools, and at the other educational facilities within the District.

Bar chart with title 'K-12 Enrollment by School Level *FY 25 projected'. Chart has unitless Y axis from zero to 8,000 in increments of 1,000 and six clusters on the X axis labeled as Elementary, K-8, Middle, High, Charter, and Other. Each cluster has a bar for each year from 2021 through 2025. For the Elementary cluster, 2021 equals approximately 6,250, 2022 approximately 6,600, 2023 approximately 6,900, 2024 approximately 6,700, and 2025 approximately 6,850. For the K-8 cluster, years 2021-2023 are not shown, 2021 equals approximately 600 for 2024, and 2025 approximately 700. For the Middle cluster, 2021 equals approximately 3,500, 2022 approximately 3,900, 2023 approximately 3,800, 2024 approximately 3,750, and 2025 approximately 3,800. For the High cluster, 2021 equals approximately 4,950, 2022 approximately 5,100, 2023 approximately 5,300, 2024 approximately 5,400, and 2025 approximately 5,550. For the Charter cluster, 2021 equals approximately 3,900, 2022 approximately 3,950, 2023 approximately 4,050, 2024 approximately 4,200, and 2025 approximately 4,400. For the Other cluster, years 2021-2022 are not shown, 2023 equals approximately 1,800, 2024 approximately 1,750, and 2025 approximately 1,750.
We have experienced a consistent increase to total District enrollment and we project that trend to continue. Charter enrollment has also seen a consistent increase since fiscal year 2022 with the addition of the STEAD School. We anticipate this trend to continue as the STEAD School adds additional grade levels.
With the aforementioned growth comes capacity constraints. The three graphs below show each school’s yearly enrollment compared to its respective capacity. We have been able to avoid the schools exceeding their capacity due to voter‐approved bond issuances. This allowed us to build new schools in high areas of growth and alleviate capacity constraints. From the 2015, 2017, and 2021 bond elections, we have opened Riverdale Ridge High, Reunion Elementary, Quist Middle, Padilla Elementary, Southlawn Elementary, and K‐8 Discovery Magnet School. The impact new schools have on the over‐populated schools is immediate and is evidenced within the graphs below by school level. The most recent bond election passed in 2021 will enable 27J to continue to be proactive about adding educational space for the consistent growth we expect through the next five years, specifically with the addition of a new middle school and high school.

School Finance Act
The Colorado School Finance Act outlines the Total Program funding formula used to determine a per‐pupil funding level for each school district. The Total Program funding includes a base amount plus additional factors which compensates for financial differences among districts such as cost of living, size of the district and personnel costs. In addition to these factors, funding is also allocated for at‐risk and on‐line pupil counts.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Funded K‐12 Pupil Count for fiscal year 2024‐2025 | 22,919 |
| Per‐Pupil Funding | $11,224 |
Budget Stabilization Factor $0
- For Fiscal year 2024‐2025, The School Finance Act includes the elimination of the Budget Stabilization Factor.
- Since 2010, the Budget Stabilization Factor has decreased the District's revenue by over $200 million.
Total Program Funding and Available Resources
The District receives revenue from a variety of state and local sources. The largest of these sources is state equalization which accounts for 48.7% of Total Program funding and 48.7% of total available resources for fiscal year 2024‐2025. In addition to Total Program funding, the District has two voter‐approved mill levy overrides. A 2002 override for $750,000 and a 2022 override for a maximum of 8 mills. In 2024‐2025 the 2022 Mill Levy Override is projected to provide an additional $24,200,380 which calculates to be $1,138/student for school year 2024‐2025.

Prior to fiscal year 2020, we employed legal counsel of our own, but starting in fiscal year 2020, we changed to contracting for all of these services. Due to the inconsistent frequency of legal counsel required on a year‐to‐year basis, contracting these services remains more financially efficient.

This staff includes technicians in HVAC, locks and doors, electricity, plumbing and general assistance and support. Of the total allocation, salaries and benefits make up roughly 64% of the department's budget. The remaining 36% pays for maintenance supplies and services in the aforementioned areas as needed. This budget also pays for equipment that Facilities needs to perform core and common duties and licensing and dues for the technicians on staff.
The Custodial Services department comprises expenditures related to district custodial operations. This department pays for all custodial salaries and benefits and services and supplies throughout 27J. Prior to fiscal year 2022, each school was responsible for custodial overtime, supplemental and stipend salaries and benefits, as well as all custodial services and supplies. However, as of fiscal year 2022, Custodial Services is now allocated all custodial expenditures for all District locations. This was done to reduce the schools' financial burden. Custodial supplies and equipment now makes up roughly 66% of this department's budget compared to about 40% in prior years.
The Building Services department is responsible for the District's utilities; natural gas, electricity, water/sewage and waste disposal. This department is one of very few departments that does not include any employee salaries and benefits.
Under the direction of the Grounds Supervisor, the Grounds Services department budget is allocated salaries and benefits for cyclical/seasonal groundskeepers of 10‐15 employees, totaling approximately 78% of the department's budget. Grounds Services is also responsible for service and supply expenditures related to maintenance, care and repair of the District's landscaping, walkways and environment.
The District contracts with local law enforcement offices to provide security resource officers at all district schools. The Community Services department houses the budget for those contract expenditures. The cities of Thornton, Brighton and Commerce City each provide officers for 27J's schools within their jurisdiction. With the passing of the 2022 Mill Levy, the voters approved to have a portion allocated towards improving the safety and security measures for our students and staff.

Within the Information Technology department is allocated technology hardware and ancillary equipment, staff and student software programs, and licensing and maintenance services. Along with the supplies and services paid for by this department, the IT staff is comprised of 25‐35 employees tasked with managing and maintaining all software and hardware as well as providing support to all systems across the district. Combined, all employees in IT makeup just over 50% of the Department's budget with the rest slated for services and supplies. The main challenge within the IT department is keeping up with enrollment and resultant staff growth and the speed of technology advancements across the education industry. Every new batch of students and staff members obviously requires hardware, software and licensing accommodations to match all that have come before. Projecting the total demand for these items is crucial to our budget development year in and year out to ensure that 27J can operate efficiently and effectively.

Bar graph title "District-wide Departments by % of Total. Labelled fractional components from largest to smallest are '2022 Mill Levy' corresponding with 74%; 'Other District-Wide Budgets' corresponding with 15%; 'Certified Substitutes' corresponding with 7%; 'Class Size Relief (Mill Levy)' corresponding with 3%; 'Temp/Vac Leave Payoffs' corresponding with 2%; and 'Early Retirement Plans' corresponding with 1%.
The annual budget process involves allocating per‐school TE assignments based on each school's projected enrollment for a given year. During that year, any school can exceed projected enrollment which then requires that school to hire more teachers to accommodate the additional students. The Class Size Relief (Mill Levy) department is a district‐wide budget used as a blanket buffer to accommodate those fluctuations ensuring we can always meet the student‐to‐teacher ratio goals we set as a district and preventing schools from having to eat into their standard supplies and services budgets.
The Certified Substitutes department budget is a district‐wide budget buffer that is set aside to pay for substitutes. The amount paid every year on substitutes varies over the course of the school year and this allocation allows more flexibility for the rest of the District's departments and schools to operate without having to worry about covering the costs of their staff's absences.
The Early Retirement Plans budget is a sunsetted program that, as the name suggests, pays early retirement benefits for several staff still employed by the District at this time. These staff members opted in to the program during its existence and are grandfathered in until they are no longer with the District.
Temp/Vacation Leave Payoffs is a contingency department to account for salaries and benefits owed to terminated and laid off personnel. Other District‐wide Budgets is a department designed to be a catch‐all for the District as a whole for all other expenditures. This includes, but is not limited to, contingencies/reserves for extended day pay for staff that is not part of regular contract wages, increases in salaries and benefits, excess overtime for extreme and unforseen circumstances and overages in contract services and supplies as a result of economic risk factors.

The Federal Government contributes a limited amount of funding to school districts through special programs like Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) and the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA). Districts receive these funds to help at‐risk students, students from low‐income families or students with disabilities.
Local revenue consists of property taxes, specific ownership taxes (vehicle registration fees), Bond issuance proceeds and non‐tax sources like student fees, facility usage, cash in lieu of land and investment interest.
Funding from the state is received via categorical and equalization revenue. Equalization revenue is received via the Colorado School Finance Act. Categorical funding provides support for specific programs that districts offer such as gifted and talented, special education, transportation and vocational. Typically, certain costs districts spend related to these programs are reimbursed by the state.

27J Schools has been able to pass multiple Bond elections to support the substantial population (enrollment) growth within the District over the last several years. It is a unique situation compared to many other districts in the state, and, as a result, the Bond Redemption and Building Funds make up approximately 64% of 27J’s total expenditures. The Building Fund solely pays for the construction of new schools and infrastructure and major repair and renovation of existing schools and the Bond Redemption Fund pays for principal and interest of that Bond debt. The remaining 36% of total expenditures is made up of General Fund and all other funds pay for overall operations of the District and its many locations and programs.

Teachers (certified employees) make up the largest part of 27J's salaries and benefits. As part of the budget every year, compensation is a vital priority as 27J strives to attract and retain the highest‐quality educators. In fiscal year 2023‐2024, the District committed a significant investment into compensation increases in order to combat cost‐of‐living increases, low benchmarking and recognition of the tremendous efforts all staff have shown over the years. In fiscal year 2024‐2025, the District plans to continue this investment
