FY26 Budget Advisory Council

We are pleased to announce the new Andover Public Schools FY26 Budget Advisory Council. Created at the conclusion of the 2023-24 school year, the FY26 Budget Advisory Council consists of APS staff members, APS parents/guardians and members of the Andover community. 

The role of the ad-hoc advisory council is to provide non-binding consultation to the superintendent and her administrative team during the FY26 school department budget process. 

The purpose of the council is to facilitate productive conversations and to identify community priorities in developing a balanced FY26 budget with transparency and in partnership with key stakeholders. 

Planning for future years' budgets begins each fall, and we will share information with the community as the council continues its work and throughout the FY26 Budget process. Members on the council will serve in an advisory capacity for one (1) year.
