Financing Public Schools moves beyond the basics of financing
public elementary and secondary education to explore the
historical, philosophical, and legal underpinnings of a viable
public school system. Coverage includes the operational aspects of
school finance, including issues regarding teacher salaries and
pensions, budgeting for instructional programs, school
transportation, and risk management. Diving deeper than other
school finance books, the authors explore the political framework
within which schools must function, discuss the privatization of
education and its effects on public schools, offer perspectives
regarding education as an investment in human capital, and expertly
explain complex financial and economic issues. This comprehensive
text provides the tools to apply the many and varied fiscal
concepts and practices that are essential for aspiring public
school administrators who aim to provide responsible stewardship
for their students. Special Features: "Definitional Boxes" and "Key
Terms" throughout chapters enhance understanding of difficult
concepts. Coverage of legal, political, and historical issues
provides a broader context and more complex understanding of school
finance. Offers in-depth exploration of business management of
financial resources, including fiscal accounting, school
facilities, school transportation, financing with debt, and the
nuances of school budgeting techniques.
