GCEIC 3rd Annual Leadership Academy - Budgeting, Planning, and Spending - Oh my March 2025

The 3rd Annual GCEIC Leadership Series has finally arrived! These workshops are facilitated by GCEIC member-district superintendents, assistant superintendents, and leadership teams and will focus on building leadership knowledge and skills that promote positive student outcomes.  Participants may attend as many of the monthly leadership workshops as desired.  Participation in each two-day workshop will qualify for OSL and SEMI credits.

The March 2025 Leadership Academy topic will focus on the financial aspect of school or district leadership.  Topics will include understanding school and district budgets (federal, state, and local funds), learning the basics of functions and objects, and aligning funding sources for school success. Day 1 features district and state funding, planning, and budgeting, and Day 2 features an overview and the essential components of federal (title) funding. Each day practical strategies will be presented for use at participants' schools.  Presenters will also provide an opportunity for Q & A as well as a presentation of scenarios for discussion with participants.  

Instructors: Mr. Brian Freeman, Forrest County superintendent (Day 1) and the GCEIC Federal Programs Consortium Group made up of federal programs directors from GCEIC participating districts.
