Flexibility
School leaders define the resources they
need to drive student achievement
“Principals own their budgets”
Student-Based Budgeting aims to strengthen the funding system
Equity
Resources are distributed equitably
based on student need
“Dollars follow the student”
Transparency
Clear and easily understood rules for where, how, and why
dollars flow
“The formula tells you what you get”

Traditional vs. SBB Funding Systems
Traditional Student-Based-Budgeting
Schools receive funds based on…
District-wide staffing and resourcing ratios
A formula based largely on individual student needs
School budgets include…
Specific staff positions plus a targeted set of prescribed resources
Dollars spent on resources to implement the school’s instructional model, plus categorical/centrally controlled funds
School leaders actively control… <5% of school budgets 50-70% of school budgets

Tied to real student need, requiring additional resources to address effectively
Objective and quantifiable
Schools should not have direct control or agency over the metric
Present in at least 3-5% of, but not all, students
Exist at more than one school, with variation across schools
Key decision: what student attributes to weight?
Source: ERS
Relevant
Measurable
Independent
Significant
Diversified
Weighted attributes should be:

SBB implies a big shift in how schools and districts work together
Source: ERS
Increased strategic responsibility for school leaders
District office assumes a “customer service” role

Setting the Stage for SBB
Cleveland Plan—Defined the goals, set context Portfolio District Quality is a measure
HB 525—Created the work conditions CBA —Created some flexibility CEO Driver—Faster…clock is ticking Designing the solution

We believe….
When school leaders control their resources, they serve children better
Control Time (Master Schedule and Collective Bargaining Agreement)
Control Treasure Student-Based Budgeting (SBB) Control Talent TDES and Hiring
All leaders have the right to these tools Don’t need to earn autonomy All schools are accountable for student achievement

SBB
Weights Base lower than most districts Literacy Lo and Hi, Graduation rate, Grade (K-3) Mobility SPED, ELL
Formula Driven by district strategies… Increase literacy, fix HS in
Elementary, manage special needs Be aware of all stakeholder expectations
The Devil is in the Details, and You Need Tools to manage the Devil

Transition Strategies
Soft Landing—Temporary policy to ease into or soften the transition to SBB
Average Salaries Baseline Service Measure Communicate Clear Flexibilities Revised Planning and Budget Cycle Redesigned Central Office Pilot or No Pilot

Learning
Talent Strategy-Work force composition is key driver TDES Differentiated Compensation Creating a performance driven culture
Integration and interdependency issues TRAIN, TRAIN, TRAIN—“It’s only real when it’s real.” Don’t forget CO In or Out People don’t like change, and this is change

Top lessons for SBB design and implementation
It’s about academics, not finance Make it worth your while…or don’t make it Details matter…a lot Central’s cheese should move at least as much as
schools’ Ground design AND stakeholder engagement in “the
why” Roll out + revenue decline = Extra-special challenge The work is never “done”
