Welcome to Finance Friday, some insight on school finance. Did you know that in 2023-2024 it is estimated to cost $15,445 to educate one student in FZSD? The costs of educational programs are the expenses the district incurs to retain highly qualified staff; provide instructional materials such as equipment and technology; and keep utilities on.
What’s the return on investment?
