Jordan
School District maintains an excellent fiscal reputation and
record. For the 16th consecutive year, we received the prestigious
Government Finance Offices Association's Certificate of Achievement
for Excellence in Financial Reporting for our Comprehensive
Annual Financial Report. The Association of School Business
Officials International also awarded us a Meritorious Budget
Award for excellence in the preparation and issuance of a
school system annual budget—the sixth straight year
for this honor.
We operate an efficient
school system that makes the most of our personnel and taxpayer
dollars. We maintain a reputation for high student achievement
despite spending an average of just $4,282 per pupil, 43 percent
less than the national average and 39 percent below the state
average. For each dollar spent, 65 cents goes directly to
schools for classroom instruction. Another 23.4 cents is used
for support services like instructional support staff, school
maintenance, transportation and meals. Less than six cents
per dollar is spent on school administration and just 0.6
cents on District administration, one of the lowest percentages
in the country. Innovative cost-saving programs, dedicated
employees, and a Board of Education and District administration
devoted to delivering cost-effective services make this possible. |
