School District Budgeting – Additional Assistance

2019/20 BUDGET MATERIALS

The documents are available on the Auditor of Public Accounts website and the Finance & Organizational Services/School District Budgeting website.

SCHOOL FINANCE & BUDGET WEBINAR

The webinar will be held on Wednesday, June 26, 2019 (9:30 AM to 12:00 PM CST).  This webinar will provide information on the budget process and State Aid.  Further details will be available by the end of June on the FOS/Webinars webpage.

NEW SUPERINTENDENT ORIENTATION

There will be two orientations for “new” superintendents and their bookkeepers in July (see below).  The focus of these orientations is to help individuals (who are starting their first year or completing their first year as a superintendent) become comfortable with the budget process and related school finance issues.  Invitations and registration information will be sent directly to this group of “new” superintendents by the end of June; however, any superintendent and their bookkeeper may register to attend these orientations.

BUDGET ASSISTANCE

The School Finance Team will provide individual Budget Assistance at the Younes Conference Center in Kearney during the Administrators’ Days Convention on July 31 & August 1, 2019.  The assistance will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis (sign-up sheets will be available at the Conference Center).

Team members are available to answer budget questions and provide assistance by telephone, email, appointment in Lincoln, or through small group meetings.  To schedule appointments or small group meetings, contact one of the individuals listed below.
