Region 17 offers training, information, and consulting services with state funding templates, TEA funding reports, and general school finance issues. 

School funding is composed of a complex system of formulas derived from statutory and regulatory citations. All districts funding situations are unique. Each district's funding has evolved from decisions made by the district's local governing body, legislative processes, economic factors and judicial processes over many years. A critical element in proper financial management of a school district is the ability to understand the state funding system and to have reasonable and accurate projections of state revenue.
