Budget Development Process

Dr. Forys is a master at long range district planning. In my internship, I have had the opportunity to see her planning for budget, bonds and levies, Board communications. These systems are the key to a peaceful, focused school district. In my estimation, she doesn't get the credit that she deserves for leading a district that is at peace, moving at a reasonable pace toward reform.
I have so much to learn from her. My own plans are more scattered and I move from project to project too quickly and get involved too deeply at the implementation stage.

This is an example of her long range planning and Dick A. is actually the administrator who organizes and carries out this process.
