Book excerpt: Designed for aspiring school leaders, this text presents the realities of school finance policy and issues, as well as the tools for formulating and managing school budgets.

Download or read book A Michigan School Money Primer for Policymakers School Officials Media and Residents written by Ryan S. Olson and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The system that finances Michigan's schools from kindergarten through 12th grade is a perennial topic of conversation among policymakers, parents, taxpayers and voters. A constructive discussion of this issue, however, requires a sound knowledge of the financial workings of Michigan's elementary and secondary school system. This knowledge is precisely what the authors have attempted to provide. While the Mackinac Center for Public Policy has developed numerous policy recommendations over the years, this primer is exclusively informational. This primer addresses the following: (1) how revenues are raised for Michigan's elementary and secondary public school system; (2) how money is distributed to education programs and school districts once it is collected by various taxing authorities; and (3) how districts budget monies to be spent on the various activities involved in operating schools and other educational programming. This book is arranged in four sections. The first--and the shortest--is "A Brief Overview of the Structure of Michigan's Public School System," which defines a few basic terms and sketches the main local, state and federal agencies involved in financing Michigan's public school system. This overview should help readers unfamiliar with Michigan's public school structure navigate the remainder of the book. The second, third and fourth sections are considerably longer than the first and cover the three areas: tax revenues, distribution of revenues and financial management of those revenues by school districts. Appended are: (1) U.S. Department of Education Spending in Michigan; (2) Summary of "Durant" Court Decisions; and (3) Guide to a New School Finance Electronic Module. An index is included. (Contains 29 graphs, 238 footnotes, and 410 endnotes, footnotes.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To determine if a teacher's understanding of school finance impacts their overall job satisfaction, this study used a mixed methods approach to investigate a Michigan metropolitan school district's teacher's understanding of school finance and their overall job satisfaction. The study utilized an initial survey to determine the level of job satisfaction of the staff. This was then followed by qualitative interviews that established the knowledge base of each respondent. Data collected showed that kindergarten through twelfth-grade teachers who express low job satisfaction also exhibited a poor grasp of school finance. Conversely, the staff who demonstrated high job satisfaction within the survey also showed a higher level of understanding of school finance. As funding for schools continue to change, the study's findings reveal the importance of educating and including teaching staff in financial decisions within the district.
Download or read book Equity and Adequacy in Education Finance written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-02-12 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spending on K-12 education across the United States and across local school districts has long been characterized by great disparitiesâ€"disparities that reflect differences in property wealth and tax rates. For more than a quarter-century, reformers have attempted to reduce these differences through court challenges and legislative action. As part of a broad study of education finance, the committee commissioned eight papers examining the history and consequences of school finance reform undertaken in the name of equity and adequacy. This thought-provoking, timely collection of papers explores such topics as: What do the terms "equity" and "adequacy" in school finance really mean? How are these terms relevant to the politics and litigation of school finance reform? What is the impact of court-ordered school finance reform on spending disparities? How do school districts use money from finance reform? What policy options are available to states facing new challenges from court decisions mandating adequacy in school finance? When measuring adequacy, how do you consider differences in student needs and regional costs?
Download or read book The Effect of School Finance Centralization on School Revenue and Spending written by Jinsub Choi and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1995, the Michigan state government centralized a school finance system by removing local discretion on school revenue. The theoretical framework says that centralization has the price and income effects on the pivotal voter's demand for school spending, probably reducing overall spending levels. Using the district-level panel data on school finance in Michigan and neighboring states for the period of fiscal year 1990-2004, this paper provides evidence for the effect of the Michigan school finance reform on the level of school revenue and spending. The study finds that the reform decreases the level of school revenue and spending with a time lag at the state level. The results also suggest that the reform equalizes revenue and spending among school districts at the expense of high-revenue district's resources without a large increase in low-revenue district's resources.
