Attached is a Cost Reduction Chart.  The chart shows the cost savings in a particular year and if that amount was not a “one-time savings”, it then got multiplied by either 1, 2, or 3 depending upon the number of years that those savings would be cumulative. Obviously, everything listed this school year is moved to the cumulative column as the same number.
