Editorial Reviews

Review

"I highly recommend this book to budget committees, site-based groups, educational administration professors, and new administrators. It is a great book to start out with for budgeting and connecting vision to the process. There are many examples provided that can be used right now in schools during a budgeting cycle."

(Darin Drill, Principal )

"Practical information that the school principal needs. The book is a resource that school principals should put on their desks, not their bookshelves. Additionally, the university professor may want to consider the book as a reference for students." (AASA Journal of Scholarship and Practice, Spring 2007 )


Product Description

5.0 out of 5 stars School Budgeting Made Easy!, June 28, 2009
This is a well written book that makes it much easier to understand the budgeting process. It captivates your interest with well-written vignettes about important budgeting issues. I was fortunate to not only use this book in class but also have the primary writer as my instructor. I didn't think it was possible to make school budgeting interesting or fun but the writer and the book made it happen! I wish all of my texts could be so interesting. Fantastic text! Happy Student. :)
