TRANSPARENT BUDGETS

One of the responsibilities of a school board is to develop and manage the school corporation budget. School budgets are far different than a personal checking account or a home equity line of credit. It is important to have board members who understands how these budgets work under Indiana law and are familiar with the processes.

You may have seen ongoing construction at our schools and a brand new middle school being erected in Winfield. You may wonder how these projects are being funded. You see fuel costs rise and wonder how schools keep their buses running. You may wonder where the extra money you put out for a taxpayer funded referendum is being used. All good questions that deserve answers.

As a School Board member, I want to place the school corporation budget in regular communications with parents and taxpayers. I propose an open and transparent budget that is easy to understand and posted regularly on the corporation website and in school newsletters. For those not using electronic technology (Yes, these folks exist and pay taxes), let’s provide paper copies for their perusal.
