FINANCIAL TRANSPARENCY
The district is committed to being fiscally responsible and using your tax dollars wisely to support our students' education. Through our "student centered" budgeting process we prioritize over 78% of funds directly to schools to support student education, 19% of funds to support operations (buses, facilities, food services, safety) and less than 3% supports administration. We are committed to financial transparency. The District board reviews and approves the annual budget twice a year and reviews financial statements monthly. Everyone is invited to attend our public board meetings.
