School Finance

Arizona currently has the third lowest average per pupil expenditure in the country. School finance teams are stretched thin and often do not have the capacity to maximize their budget allocations.

The Maricopa County School Superintendent's Office financial management team is always ready to provide financial consulting, working with school employees when navigating financial software and through all stages of budgeting and accounting processes. That includes working collaboratively with school districts in determining local property tax rates, assisting districts in complying with state and federal statutes and regulations, and acting as the fiscal liaison on behalf of school districts with local, county, state, and federal entities. The team ensures dollars are being used to support children and their learning.

Overall, the financial services department aims for personalized help so that schools can accurately allocate dollars to operate efficiently in order to most benefit students.
