ABOUT THIS EPISODE

#006 - Of charter schools that have been shut down, some 80% are due to financial mismanagement. With looming state and local budget crises, and potential cuts to per pupil allocations, sound financial management will become all the more important in the coming years. On today’s episode, I'm joined by Raj Thakkar, founder and CEO of Charter School Business Management, to talk about how to prepare for looming budget cuts, common financial missteps and how you can avoid them, and whether schools should be applying for the paycheck protection program, amongst many other topics.
