Abstract

This study was designed to determine the flexibility that selected principals preferred when implementing financial site-based decision making in their schools. To complete the research, the fund categories representing areas of educational functions and service in the school system chart of accounts were evaluated. The findings indicated that principals have a strong desire to gain control over the funds they feel will help them improve instruction. The principals in the study did not show a desire to revamp the finance process, but desired to have more flexibility in the use of funds associated with instructional programs. Further, the principals revealed they could make significant changes in their educational programs without increas ing the amount of funds in the budget.
