Summary of The Principal's Guide to School Budgeting

Align organizational goals with a sound fiscal accountability system!

Effective administrative practices, both budgetary and academic, are continually being redefined at all levels by state, district, and school deregulation, decentralization, and restructuring. Keeping up with all the changes and meeting expectations is a challenge.

This unique budgetary survival guide will enhance your instructional, technical, and managerial skills not only as the school?s leader, but also as the school?s visionary, planning coordinator, and budgeting manager. You will find an overview of school budgeting practices within a collaborative decision-making context, and ways to link educational goal development and resource allocation management.

Special features include:

• Discussion questions
• Case study applications and problems
• Experiential activities
• Budgeting checklist for administrators
• Selected templates, forms, and resources

This valuable desk resource is intentionally organized into brief, single-topic-focused chapters, which will teach you how to develop a budget, monitor funds, manage budget reports, and prepare school action plans that are aligned with a strong fiscal accountability system.
