Finance Department

Welcome to the Finance Department!

 

We are proud to be part of a team that works every day to support our schools, our employees, and, most importantly, our students.

Finance is about much more than budgets and numbers. It is about making sure our resources are managed responsibly so that we can continue to provide the best opportunities possible for our students and support the people who make our District successful.

Our team works behind the scenes on everything from budgeting, payroll, purchasing, accounts payable, grants, and financial reporting to the many day-to-day financial needs of our schools and departments. We understand that the work we do impacts every area of the District, and we take that responsibility seriously.

We also believe that service matters. Our goal is to be a department that is approachable, responsive, and willing to help. Whether you have a question about a purchase, a paycheck, a budget, a grant, or simply need someone to point you in the right direction, we are here to help.

I am incredibly proud of our Finance team and the dedication they bring to their work each day. Together, we are committed to maintaining strong financial practices, being good stewards of taxpayer dollars, and making decisions that keep our District financially healthy and focused on our students.

We are here to serve, support, and help our District continue moving forward!

On May 27, 2009, Governor Crist signed the Transparency Florida Act into law. This legislation requires the Governor's Office to develop a website to provide specific information on every appropriation found within the General Appropriation Act for each branch of state government and state agency.  The data must include at a minimum: expenditures, appropriations and adjustments,  the status of spending authority for each appropriation and position  and  rate  information  on  state employees.

The website will be overseen by the Joint Legislative Auditing Committee which will  also propose additional phases of information to be made available.  The committee submitted a proposal directly to  the  Speaker of the House and President of the Senate which includes a schedule of additional phases of information by the type of information to be provided for specific governmental entities including all local government units, community colleges, state  universities and other government entities that receive state appropriations.
