The Shawnee Mission School District will start the school year with a budget that generally avoids the deep cuts of previous years, but also doesn’t leave room to restore those losses. The schools are getting no additional per pupil state support and are not allowed any additional property tax increases to raise local funds. http://pvpost.com/2013/08/14/shawnee-mission-schools-budget-flat-for-new-school-year-20415
