Tools and Techniques for School Budgets
Purpose:
For this assignment, you have been directed by the superintendent to compare the tools and techniques that could be used in administering a school’s budget and report based on what you believe to be the best choice for your district. There are many different types of tools a school system can use. For example, a district can use a simple Excel document or even use a contracted company to have a more complex budget. The choice is theirs.
Directions:
With your own research, identify and describe three different tools and techniques that can be used in administering a K–12 budget. Write a 3- to 4-page paper that describes and compares three different tools for administering a K–12 budget of your choice. As you compare the different tools, be sure to address the cost, technology requirements, the skill level of the user needed, as well as the products produced by the tools/programs that you have chosen.
