Some Financial Problems of the Omaha Public Schools

The problem in this study is to consider the general financial situation of the Omaha Public Schools. The growth of the school membership in the last twenty years is studied as it affects expenditures for debt service and current expenses. The school revenue problem is also considered for the years before and during the depression, and the effect the large reduction in revenue has, and will have upon the Omaha Public School finances, unless some changes are realized in the present statutes or some other relief is obtained. The reduced building program over a period of years, and the constantly increasing debt service caused by a large building program a decade or two ago are studied and attempts are made to see how all of these things can be approached in a manner which will make the best possible educational facilities for the boys and girls of Omaha without putting too great a burden upon the citizens of the community.
