Governor Shapiro proposes $44B budget including mental health services and free school breakfasts
Neshaminy School District's recent Board Public Work Session highlighted significant community engagement and state funding developments that promise to enhance local educational and mental health services.

During the meeting, it was announced that a recent charity game, coached by Chris Richardson, raised over $17,000 for the Neshaminy Education Foundation (NEF). Despite the team not securing a win, their spirited performance garnered pride from the community. The NEF board expressed gratitude to all participants and volunteers who contributed to the event's success. Looking ahead, the alumni committee will soon seek nominations for the Neshamae Alumni Achievement Awards, with the ceremony scheduled for the fall.

In a broader context, Governor Shapiro's recent budget proposal of $44 billion includes a significant allocation of $100 million for mental health services in public schools and free breakfast for all children, regardless of income. However, concerns were raised as the funding does not address pensions or special education needs, indicating ongoing challenges in these areas.

Additionally, the Bucks County Technical High School joint board meeting reported a successful audit and set the graduation date for June 13 at the QR Arena in Trenton, ensuring no conflicts with other local graduations.

The next NEF board meeting is set for April 10 at Maple Point, inviting community members to participate in discussions that shape the future of education and support services in Neshaminy.
