ABOUT THE WEBINAR
The COVID-19 crisis has caused significant disruptions in enrollment trends, and this has an amplified effect for local educational agencies (LEAs) who were already experiencing declining enrollment prior to the impacts of the pandemic. Student enrollment trends have varied widely based on geographic location, with some LEAs growing in enrollment and others declining. While LEAs with declining enrollment will benefit from having their average daily attendance (ADA) held harmless for 2020–21 and 2021–22, the cumulative impact of ongoing declining enrollment will require immediate action.
The outlook for the future is uncertain, and the planning process to align staffing and expenditures to the number of students being served starts now. The purpose of this webinar is to identify the many ways that declining enrollment impacts LEA operations and to provide strategies for addressing these challenges through reducing personnel and other expenditures.
With many decades of experience in school agency finance, human resources, and governance, top experts from the Fiscal Crisis and Management Assistance Team (FCMAT) and School Services of California Inc. (SSC) have teamed up to provide this must-attend webinar. This webinar is for LEAs of all types and sizes and will provide attendees with the tools to analyze the data to forecast agency needs, prepare the LEA to strategically respond to organizational change, and develop a plan to respond to challenges while continuing to provide quality services and programs for students.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This webinar is designed to help LEAs address structural issues due to declining enrollment and to align operations to meet the strategic plan of the organization. Structural change requires commitment, knowledge, and buy-in from all members of an LEA’s Cabinet as well as support staff directly involved with the implementation of organizational change.
