Midwest City-Del City Schools’ Chief Financial Officer has presented a list of FY 2026-2027 blanket position salary reserves for Board approval, dated June 8, 2026. These reserves cover personnel who are not under regular contracts, including substitutes, tutors, security guards, crossing guards, and stipends for curriculum development tied to various projects and anticipated programs. The amounts are based on prior year expenditures and projected programs, and will be embedded in the district’s budget under appropriate project and account codes, with some lines showing reductions requested by project leads.While this item is largely internal budgeting, it signals continued or expanding use of hourly/temporary staff and curriculum development stipends across the district, which can drive demand for workforce management, budgeting, and curriculum services. Vendors that support budgeting analytics, time/attendance, substitute management, or curriculum development consulting could position their offerings to help the district manage these non-contract expenditures more efficiently in the upcoming fiscal year.

Reserves are not legally required but are used as a budgeting practice to prevent project overspending and to centrally account for non-regular personnel costs.
