The Treasurer's Office has undergone much transition the past few years. We
believe that current strategic initiatives will provide leadership and
continuity from our office. The first priority for our office is to be
released from fiscal emergency. It is anticipated that goal will be reached
this fall. Our 96 faculty and staff members are presently working hard to
incorporate sound fiscal practices. However, hard work alone will not gain
success. We must bolster the important work of our faculty and staff with a
high level of community interest, support, and involvement in order to
attain the desired outcome.

Citing the successful formula is easy: belief + hard work + community
support = excellence. Application of that formula takes commitment,
dedication and discipline. Why bother? Our children's future and the
health of our community are at stake. Please join us on the march towards
excellence!
