The Warwick School Committee/Administration knew(or should have known) that there would be a likelihood of retroactive pay increases as part of any negotiated contract. They have had prior budget surpluses in addition to the funding set aside for a new contract. They will also request funding through a City bond for various school upgrades & improvements. In all likelihood, they will also request an increase in the next fiscal year's school budget. The average Warwick taxpayer can not continue to fund increase upon increase for a declining student enrollment population. It's time to make due with what was budgeted.
