CHARTER SCHOOL FINANCING

Don’t leave federal scholarship dollars on the table. A new federal scholarship tax credit gives donors a dollar-for-dollar credit when they contribute to a scholarship granting organization (SGO). That means a significant new source of scholarship funding for private K-12 and charter schools, and the schools that prepare early will be best positioned to benefit. Time is of the essence to learn about this program so register today!

As K-12 & charter school leaders face increasing financial pressure, finance and operations leaders are being asked to do more with limited resources while maintaining visibility, accountability, and compliance.

On Thursday, October 8, Ziegler’s Scott Rolfs and Adam Buchanan as well as their special guest, Ryan Belcher, Founder & CEO of Spendwise, hosted a practical discussion on today’s charter and K-12 finance landscape. The session began by providing charter and private K-12 school leaders with an update on the municipal bond market as well as market reactions to recent events. Following the market discussion, Scott and Ryan shared strategies for managing budgets, navigating multiple funding sources, strengthening purchasing controls, and building scalable financial processes that support long-term success.
