Las Cruces Public Schools will host the first public meeting in a series of town hall-style gatherings on Wednesday, Nov. 8 at 5:30 p.m.in the boardroom at the Dr. Karen M. Trujillo Administration Complex. Led by the LCPS Finance Division, the Budget Town Hall meeting will demonstrate to the public the budget process, timeline and budget survey.   

Chief Financial Officer Chenyu “Alex” Liu will present an overview of the budget and the strategies the district employs to gather feedback from the public. One key strategy is the use of a public survey which will be available online immediately following the Budget Town Hall meeting.  

The Budget Survey Committee, which includes teachers, administrators, community members and staff, met previously to help develop the survey. A link to take the survey will go live at www.lcps.net Wednesday night. 

The public will have two other opportunities to hear a budget overview. The LCPS Finance Division will host Budget Town Hall meetings on March 12, 2024, and May 8, 2024, when a draft budget for the next school year will be presented.  

The public is invited to attend the Nov. 8 meeting in person, or view it online using this link.
