Saddleback District OKs 1997-98 Budget
Saddleback Valley Unified School District kicked off the 1997-98 school year this week with the approval of a revised 1997-98 budget.
The budget includes general fund revenue of $158.9 million, an increase of about $12 million from last year.
Spending for the school year will reach about $156.8 million.
In other action, the five-member panel named the district’s newest school: Melinda Heights Elementary School.

The $7-million school is expected to open next fall.
Trustees also set a Board of Education meeting for 7 p.m. Sept. 30 at the district office, 25631 Diseno Drive.
