    Uploaded by

    Erin Adams Shultz
    The document summarizes the budget plan for a school media center over three years. The current annual budget is $22,600 from various sources including school funding, local funding, PTSO funding, fundraisers, and donations. This budget will allow the media center to meet initial operational goals but additional funding of $12,000-$22,000 will be needed to purchase additional technology like tablets. The long-term budget plan relies on passing a sales tax for technology and obtaining grants to fund larger purchases and the goal of providing updated technology to all students.
