School Finance Workshops
Sponsored by MASA and MOASBO
A series of workshops has been planned to provide
school finance training for school administrators and others responsible
for district finances. The workshops are designed primarily for individuals
who are newly employed in their roles, however, veterans may also
find the review and information valuable as the new school foundation
formula is phased-in. Each workshop will feature presentations by
practitioners as well as other individuals involved with school finance
for the state. All workshops will be held at the Missouri Council
of School Administrators Education Center in Jefferson City. Each
workshop will begin at 11:30 am and will conclude by 3:00 pm. The
registration fee is $35/person for each session or all three sessions
for $100. The registration fee includes lunch and all workshop handouts.

This workshop will provide assistance to school
administrators as they begin the process of developing a budget
for 2008-09.
The focus of the sessions will be on identifying key areas of
concern, estimating revenues and expenses, and a general discussion
of budgeting basics. The Governor’s budget recommendations
for education will be reviewed. There will be a discussion
of the third-year phase-in of the new formula. The workshop
will be lead by former school administrators who can share experiences
and provide advice regarding school finance and identifying potential
issues when developing a budget. |
