2025-26 Budget

Like many school Districts throughout the state and nation, the Bremerton School District is facing a budget deficit due to rising costs, declining enrollment, the expiration of COVID-19 funding, and insufficient state education funding. 

Budget reduction measures are never easy. The District’s priority is to keep cuts furthest from the classroom when possible. The goal is always to minimize the reduction of classroom teaching positions and maintaining educational program access for students.

We remain committed to providing the best possible education for our students, and to ongoing communication about our budget situation.
