A clearly-defined budget development process explains the reasoning behind budget-related decisions. While various factors may drive the District to alter the budget process from year to year, we will always strive to maintain a high level of transparency and staff and community involvement. The budget development process described below outlines when tasks are to be completed and by whom. This process involves gathering input from a variety of different staff and community groups and communicating that information effectively throughout the entire process. The process serves as a guide for the School Board, District Leadership Team, and Business Services Department, and ensures that the District’s mission, vision, and core values remain the focal point of the decision-making process.
