Dr. Jennings encouraged Ms. Thayer-Miller, a member of the financial operations department, to pursue her interest in exploring how state funding and local funding revenues are obtained by the district to fund educational programs as well as “brick and mortar” projects in the school district. Ms. Thayer-Miller is excited to find out about how the school district in which she lives uses state and local funding for its programs and services and agrees to use her research on her home school district to share with her entire team at work. Dr. Jennings agrees that this presentation will be valuable to the entire department at work.
