Faith-Filled Explorations: Smart Stewardship - Hidden Savings in School Operations
In today’s challenging financial landscape, ELEA schools are being called to do more with less—without sacrificing quality or mission. This practical, content-rich webinar will explore often-overlooked operational expenses such as office equipment leasing, in-house printing, and vendor contracts—while offering real-world strategies to uncover savings. Participants will walk away with actionable insights to improve stewardship, stretch budgets, and better support their staff and students.
