This course examined PK-12 education finance with a fundamental focus on issues and practices that directly affect the operation of the school and local education agency (LEA). We were exposed to the regulations encompassed in the Uniform System of Financial Records (USFR) and the implications of these regulations at the school site level. School finance topics related to education at the federal, state, and local levels were examined and I was able to explore school budget and accounting principles, fiscal responsibility, resource allocation, basic administrative theories, processes, and techniques, as well as discuss the major challenges facing them in the daily operation of local schools. This course included 10 hours of field experience.

EAD-505 Education Law
Through my Education Law course we were introduced to school law. These topics covered things such as:
- religious expression in public schools
- student rights
- students with disabilities
- school safety and tort liability
- moral and legal decision making
As an educational leader, it is our duty to uphold not only school and district policies but the state and federal laws that surround them as well. Being able to make decisions in all aspects of education relies on our ability to interpret and follow those guidelines laid out before us to lead with purpose and strength in challenging situations. Makes sure to check out my two EAD-505 artifact additions here.
