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.
