Explain the return on investment model. Identify at least one
program from your school that exemplifies this model and one
program that you would eliminate, using the ROI criteria.
GO TO DISCUSSION
Assessment Description
Identify stakeholders in the budget development process and
explain how the concept of “all of us are smarter than any one of
us” can serve to ensure better budgets for better schools and
promote continuous and sustainable school improvement.
SUBMIT ASSIGNMENT
Assessment Description
This assignment replicates an authentic process that school leaders
conduct each year. Reviewing the prior and current budget against
the school’s CIP/SIP and the data gathered from the needs
assessment are required for the principal to plan and develop the
upcoming budget. This process could also reveal accomplishments
in goals and help set new improvement goals for the future.
Allocate at least 5 hours in the field to support this field experience.
This assignment requires the review of a full site budget, not just
one area. (A sample budget is provided if you are unable to access
your school’s budget.).

Engage in a collaborative discussion with your principal or another
school principal about planning a site budget and request to review
the school's current and previous year's budget, as well as their
CIP/SIP. After reviewing the two budgets and the CIP/SIP, ask the
principal to describe how the current budget was developed,
including:
Development timeframe
Stakeholders involved in the process
How needs were identified
Process of defense and modification
District technology requirements and their effects on the
budget process
Review the differences between the current budget and the
previous budget, asking the principal to provide insight on any
differences. Discuss to what degree the principal thinks the budget
realistically supports the CIP/SIP.
Part 2: Budgetary Needs Assessment Survey
Administer the online needs assessment survey that you created in
Topic 3 to six or more faculty and staff identified by you and the
principal mentor.
Use any remaining field experience hours to observe and assist the
principal mentor.
Part 3: Schoolwide Budgetary Needs Assessment Summary and
Reflection
In 750-1,000 words, summarize your schoolwide budgetary needs
assessment, addressing:
Background information: An overview of the school (e.g.,
student demographics, community profile, major programs)
Current budget expenditures
Current budget revenue
Key findings from comparing last year’s budget, this year’s
budget, and the current CIP/SIP
Key findings from analyzing the results of the assessment
surveys
2-3 preliminary suggestions you might make, based on the
needs assessment data you presented
Reflect on how conducting a formalized needs assessment is an
important step in promoting continuous and sustainable school
improvement. Incorporate PSEL standards into your reflection.
Describe how you will apply what you have learned to your future
professional practice.
