A calendar might be helpful...

...because these things keep getting put off until August or September.  These things (School Board budgets) are pretty important.  And the fiscal year starts on July 1.  But the School Board didn't even have the budget on its calendar until June 19th.  So, it was virtually impossible for the County Commission to consider the school system budget until AFTER the fiscal year got started.

Sure, this happens all the time in Sumner County, but it doesn't have to.  Calendars are amazingly useful at providing dates.  Using them, one might suggest that the School Board adopt a budget by May in order to give the County Commission time to digest it and let it go through the process PRIOR to July 1st.
