A word from the authors:

The purpose of this textbook is three-fold. The first is to provide a school business official, or a prospective school business official, with a thorough understanding of the rapidly evolving context in which American public education now finds itself.

The book’s second purpose is to provide the next generation of business administrators with prerequisite knowledge of key school business concepts and practices and the tools that thus enable them to leverage school management matters to further advance contemporary education operations.

A third purpose for this book is to serve as a reference work, a rich set of understandings to which school business officials can routinely turn when they desire added information on a management topic
