Time to make cuts

Some good suggestions:

Basic Support Aid to Schools
save: $254,277,543
This is the amount of General Fund appropriations not requested by agency but requested by
governor.

Class Size Reduction
save: $ 153,537,719
Class-size reduction programs dilute the teacher talent pool and expose greater numbers of students to under-performing teachers. This adjustment would eliminate funding for this program.

Full Day Kindergarten
save: $27,243,848
Full day kindergarten was established during 2005 legislative session in response to record state revenues. Priorities: Full day kindergarten has not been demonstrated to significantly boost student performance.

University of Nevada – Reno
save: $70,728,966
NSHE Restructuring.

Athletics – UNR
save: $7,180,347

School of Medical Sciences
save: $34,667,081

University of Nevada – Las Vegas
