Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether it is requests for bricks and mortar or more operating money, each election type and context is unique with no guarantee that a set of campaign strategies successful in one district will not fail in another community. If successful campaigns were not such a delicate balance of science and art, the key to success would have long since been discovered, resulting in significantly more school districts winning at the ballot box. As members of the baby-boom generation collectively watch their last child receive a diploma from our nation's public schools, passing school tax elections is going to be even more difficult, promising tougher battles with the electorate and tighter margins between success and failure. School Tax Elections represents a marriage of research and successful practice, presenting a comprehensive planning model for school leaders preparing for and conducting school tax elections. Information presented emphasizes systems and strategies rather than specific campaign tactics, allowing school leaders to elevate their thinking to a more comprehensive and long-range vision of election planning. The authors provide school leaders with important resources to guide their planning and execution of school tax elections.

As members of the baby-boom generation collectively watch their last child receive a diploma from our nation's public schools, passing school finance elections is going to be even more difficult, promising tougher battles with the electorate and tighter margins between success and failure. School Finance Elections represents a marriage of research and successful practice, presenting a comprehensive planning model for school leaders preparing for and conducting school finance elections. Information presented emphasizes systems and strategies rather than specific campaign tactics. Avoiding a myopic focus on tactics allows school leaders to elevate their thinking to a more comprehensive and long-range vision of election planning. Each of the chapters elaborates on one of the ten elements in the authors' comprehensive planning model. Use of this model has reaped success in all types of school districts from New Jersey to California, and the authors aim to bring readers success at the ballot box as well. This second edition builds on the first with expanded sections about the attitudes of voters whose children have grown and graduated, research into the nature of organized opposition, and new material highlighting the Internet in campaigns. The authors provide school leaders with important resources to guide their planning and execution of school finance referenda.
Download or read book School Bond Success written by Carleton R. Holt and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-09-07 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many school buildings across America are falling apart due to age or lack of maintenance. Others are outmoded and do not meet the needs of modern educational programs and curricula. Unfortunately, school administrators and boards of education have found it increasingly difficult to obtain the funding necessary to correct facility problems in their districts. However help is at hand in the fourth edition of a popular title originally published in 1999. Holt updates the status of school facilities in the U.S. and provides new information on the gap between federal, state, and local funding. New to this edition is a discussion of the importance of senior voter contributions for the success of election campaigns. The nuts and bolts of securing the funding for facility construction, a component of the building process usually overlooked in training administrators, are clearly outlined in chapters that begin with a look at the problem of aging schools and follow through the planning and project development phases to the bond campaign and election-day. Filled with tips, checklists, and insights on the details from experienced school leaders, this is the perfect guide to consult every step on the way to victory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inadequate, deteriorating, old school buildings and facilities are a major concern in many school districts across the country. Studies have determined that students perform better and learn more in newer, cleaner facilities. For school districts to be able to afford new constructions or renovations, school bonds are often necessary. There are numerous requirements to obtain a school bond, but the largest hurdle is getting the registered voters support on an election day. A qualitative case study was conducted to determine which strategies are beneficial to school districts in need of passing a school bond. Lowndes County School District in northeastern Mississippi recently passed a school bond initiative, on the second attempt. The case study and findings have shown that getting stakeholder support through beneficial means of communication is a vital part of passing a bond initiative. If school districts can use funds from bonds to erect and renovate school facilities, the students in that district will greatly benefit.

This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine school district superintendents’ perceptions of processes and strategies that are successful in passing a school bond referendum in school districts not growing in student population and have a total student enrollment of 1,000 to 3,500. Specifically, this study gave close examination to school district superintendents’ perceptions of (a) contributing factors that lead to the successful passing of a school bond referendum, (b) successful strategies that school districts utilize to successfully pass school bond referendums, (c) how superintendents’ of school districts perceive they influence the community will to vote in favor of the bond referendum, (d) perceived community barriers when attempting to pass a school bond referendum, and (e) additional challenges faced in the successful passing of a school bond referendum. Research indicated that passing a school bond referendum can determine the direction for a school district for many years to come (Faltys, 2006). Research also stated that a superintendents’ knowledge of the perceptions of the community and the processes that go into a successful bond referendum can lead to success on Election Day (R. Stein, personal communication, June 23, 2014). This study is significant because it will expand the body of knowledge related to the challenges superintendents experience in passing a bond referendum in a district with no student enrollment growth and strategies that contribute to the successful passing of a school bond referendum. viii Participants for this study included seven superintendents from Texas school districts not experiencing student enrollment growth and have an enrollment of 1,000 to 3,500 students. Semi-structured interviews consisted of 14 open-ended and close-ended questions and were conducted, audio recorded, and transcribed. Transcribed data were analyzed using a general inductive approach (Thomas, 2003) to identify emerging themes. Findings and implications related to policy and practice for superintendents and other district and community leaders were discussed and recommendations were provided that might assist public school leaders in the successful passing of school bond referendums. The results from the research questions identified superintendents’ perceptions that contributed to the successful passing of bond referendum and identified six emerging themes: (a) communicate the facts of the bond as often as possible, (b) be transparent to establish trust throughout the bond process, (c) build relationships with stakeholders in the community, (d) build community alliances to assist in strategic communication to voters, (e) solicit the opinion of experts in the bond process, and (f) be visible throughout the bond process. In this phenomenological qualitative study, the researcher used a content analysis to compare the perceptions that superintendents have regarding strategies used in passing a school bond referendum.
