Key Insights for School Leaders


  1. Impact on Budgets, HR, and Payroll Systems: With potential policy changes on the horizon, school administrators may need to reassess how they manage budgets, HR, and payroll systems. A renewed focus on efficiency and accountability could require districts to implement more robust tools and processes.

This would call for strategic planning to align school resources with these goals, ensuring students are prepared for future career opportunities.
