School District 4J’s Financial Management Goals and Policies provide the framework for financial planning and decision making by the School Board, Budget Committee, and district staff. They are designed to help ensure the financial integrity of the district which, along with prudent management of its financial resources, is necessary if the district is to provide the educational services, support services and facilities that address the needs and desires of our students, their parents, and the community.
In sum, the goals are broad statements of board philosophy for financial management of the district while the policies provide more specific direction for consistent financial management decisions.
