Budget Priorities
The Board has a primary goal to provide an annual budget that supports the district educational goals and programs while receiving community support. As the budget is prepared, staff will use a prioritizing system consistent with programs needs as identified by staff and the Board. Priorities will be used as a basis for budget additions or reductions. The budget committee will review suggested priorities to either accept, modify or reject budget priorities, or may recommend budget priorities to be implemented by the Board.
The Board has a secondary goal to achieve effective, efficient budget management according to the following principles:
1. All expenditures are made according to a purchasing procedure that assures administrative control within budget limits unless specifically exempted and approved by the Board.
2. All expenditures are subject to Board review and monthly approval.
3. All purchasing shall serve the educational program and students.
4. All purchases shall be made according to the most economical price and with competitive bidding when appropriate and/or required.
5. Other than the hiring of district personnel, all acquisition of services, equipment and supplies, regardless of the source of funding, shall be governed by this policy.
The Board directs the superintendent to develop appropriate rules and regulations to guide and control budget development and management.
