Coffee & Conversation - Single District Counties - Structure & Finance - Part B

Welcome back to Part B of this episode of the Coffee & Conversation Podcast! In this continuation, our host Jeff Harris, Del Norte County Superintendent of Schools, builds on the discussion exploring a unique part of California’s educational system: Single District Counties — how they’re structured and how their finances work. Jeff is once again joined by Jeff Aranguena, Mariposa County Superintendent of Schools, Michael Fine, CEO of FCMAT, and Greg Bowen, Assistant Superintendent of Business for Del Norte County Schools. Together, they continue their deep dive into the small number of California counties operating under this model, further examining how responsibilities are divided between the County Office of Education and the School District and expanding on the financial processes that make Single District Counties distinct.
