Both City & School spending in Warwick are out of line; student enrollment has been dropping. The Warwick School Budget should be on par with the City of Cranston-the School Dept. & School Committee need to accept that. Both communities are similar in size & enrollment. I know that the prior funding method shortchanged Warwick compared to some other RI cities & towns, but it's time to move on! In the very foreseable future, Warwick can expect a decrease in funding from the new formula based on the forthcoming continued drop in student enrollment. The time is now to plan to make the changes needed. Otherwise, there will be some very painful cuts/choices down the road.The municipal budget is no better; the city can't continue to provide all services & pay the types of salaries & benefits as it does currently-the City will have a new unfunded pension problem & it won't have the tax base to finance/amortize its way out of it.
