Northwest Local School District, Annual Budget Document, Building a Stable Financial Foundation, Fiscal Year, 2024 - 2025 NWLSD 2024 -2025 Annual Budget Document

NWLSD’s Annual Budget Document is a comprehensive budget document created in the "spirit of full disclosure" in order to clearly communicate our District’s financial and academic story and notes, not only where we have been, but where we are and where we are going. 

This document shows how the district budgets for General Fund expenditures, as well as additional restricted allocations from various state and federal grants. As a service entity, approximately 80% of our expenditures are in personnel (salaries and benefits). Therefore, we have shown our district staffing plan by position, building and department. Each position is budgeted utilizing the position’s average salary, retirement and fringe benefits and weighted average insurance benefits. You can easily maneuver through the document by utilizing the hyperlinked table of contents.

  • How Funds Within NWLSD Are Allocated And Spent
