Purpose & Uses • To categorize and report expenses related to the education of students. • EFM (Expenditure Flow Model) is the source of the Annual Spending Per Pupil numbers that appear on the Local Report Cards and the Trend Data Reports.
What is Included • Not all expenditures accounted for by school districts are included in the model. • Only the expenditures from revenue generating activities are included (ie. school lunchroom).
EFM functions • The EFM recognizes that school districts perform common functions. • Functions are the activities or services that are performed to accomplish the objectives of a school district. • The EFM data, then, is comprised of the five functions or sub-categories for analysis. • Administration • Operations Support • Staff Support • Pupil Support • Instruction
