Berrien RESA Center for Educational Performance and Information Report
Current General Fund Operating Expenditures for 2021-2022
Like any organization, Berrien RESA has a variety of expenditures including utilities, technology, facility maintenance, insurance, personnel, and office supplies. Schools also pay for classroom supplies, specialized services for students with special needs, and many other instruction-related items. Public schools, like most government entities, have elected boards that control the expenditure (and receipt) of school funds. The school board members carry out educational obligations at the local level, and they have the ultimate responsibility for school operations. For consistency across fiscal years and between districts, public school districts are required to follow the common chart of accounts defined in Michigan’s Public School Accounting Manual.
