DERBY — The Board of Education Monday unanimously approved a $16.2 million budget for 2012-2013 that includes restoring librarians at all four schools and initiatives for students struggling academically in transition from elementary school.
The budget is $719,768, or 4.7 percent, more than the current $15.4 million. It now heads to the city’s tax board for a review.
The school board will get to explain its request during the tax board’s workshop scheduled March 6 at City Hall. The tax board votes on it in May.
