Galion City Schools is dedicated to financial transparency and educating our community on school finance. We are excited to announce "The Galion Fiscal Focus," where we will share monthly financial pieces and updates. This month, we will start with the Galion City School District's Five-Year Forecast.
The district is required to submit a Five-Year Forecast twice a year, once in May and again in November. It's a mandatory document covering three years of actual data and projecting five years ahead, detailing anticipated revenues and expenditures. This forecast considers various factors that can impact the school system's financial health, including but not limited to enrollment trends, state and federal funding changes, revenue projections and capital investments.
Check out our latest Five-Year Forecast: https://galionschools.blueskymeeting.com/meeting_groups/167/item_attachments/81552.

Did you know that COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy & Protection Act) is in place to safeguard our children's privacy on the internet? COPPA prohibits children under the age of 13 from having social media accounts. It empowers parents by giving them control over what information websites can collect from their kids. You can find more helpful information and tips on internet safety for kids from Internet Safety Expert, Jesse Weinberger, at https://www.overnightgeekuniversity.com/.
