MAISD Annual Web
Report
2007-08
Introduction
The MAISD Annual Web Report is a welcome opportunity for the MAISD to communicate with our community about how we utilize the resources provided to us. Our spending decisions support our mission to provide the leadership, programs, and services which complement and enhance the efforts of constituent school districts in extending educational opportunities to all students.
The MAISD is strongly focused on supporting school improvement efforts, providing cost effective business solutions, offering programs for students, helping parents, and working within our community to maximize resources for all families. Just like any other business organization we issue paychecks, our staff travel to trainings and conferences, we contract with outside vendors for services, and we incur legal costs. Unlike other business organizations, we are governed by a school board selected by our customers, our local districts. Everything we do is subject to public review at anytime by any person or organization.
If you simply review the numbers in this report, you have only scratched the surface of our organization. We invite you to dig deeper into our web site, visit our Head Start Program, Muskegon Area Career Tech Center, Wesley School, MAISD Regional Mathematics & Science Center, and the MAISD Administration Building. If you have further questions, comments, or would like to arrange for a visit, please contact our Public Information Officer at (231) 767-7263 or e-mail ktank@muskegonisd.org.
