Human Resources explores the board and superintendent relationship; elements of employing the superintendent; the board’s responsibility to other personnel; establishing a framework for evaluation; and fostering a culture of accountability for sound personnel practices across the district.
In School Finance, learn how to achieve a balance between district goals and student achievement by establishing budget priorities; developing appropriate processes for budget development, adoption and revision; implementing the budget; and monitoring and auditing the district’s finances.
