Budget & Salary Transparency Reporting

Section 18 (2) of the Public Act 94 of 1979, The State School Aid Act, requires each school district and intermediate school district to post certain information on its website within 15 days after a board adopts it including the annual operating budget or any subsequent revision to that budget.

The Annual Budget & Transparency Reporting is an opportunity to communicate to our community how we utilize the resources that are provided to us. The following information is required to be posted on our website.


This section of the WAY Academy website addresses the State of Michigan Statutory Requirement MCL 388.1618 Subsections 2 and 3 for School Budget and Transparency Reporting.
