School-Based Budgeting. ERIC Digest, Number 64.
Peterson, David
School-based budgeting decentralizes fiscal decisions and is usually adopted as part of a comprehensive school-based management plan. The practice requires cooperation, particularly from the school board, superintendent, and principals. The purpose of school-based budgeting is not to reduce costs but to improve school productivity by altering authority relationships within the district. (MLF)
